About the Item

Add a touch of whimsical elegance to your space with this charming 19th-century French faience foot bath. Crafted circa 1880, the oval basin features richly molded rococo cartouches on each side, framing hand-painted chinoiserie-style scenes of exotic birds nestled among flowering branches. The colorful palette, highlighting rose, yellow, green, and lilac tones, is enhanced by raised gilt scrollwork that lends a dimensional, decorative flourish. The cream-colored body displays subtle craquelure from age, and the piece is fitted with ornate molded side handles and a thick rolled rim. Each side presents a variation of the avian and floral motif, inspired by 18th-century Asian export wares popular in France during the late 19th century. The unmarked underside shows light staining and wear consistent with age. Measuring 19 inches wide by 12.5 inches deep and 9 inches high, this antique foot bath is equally striking as a decorative cachepot or centerpiece. Excellent condition commensurate with age and use.

19th Century, French, Hand Painted Barbotine Faience Floral Vase from Montigny
Located in Dallas, TX
This antique majolica planter was sculpted in Montigny sur Loing, France, circa 1860. Tall and oval in shape, the ceramic jardinière stands on a flat rectangular base; it features colorful hand painted floral motifs in high relief on a brown background. The elegant barbotine vase is in excellent condition with rich patinated colors in the pale green, yellow, beige and pink palette. Impressionist ceramics term generally applies to "paint the slip" or "batch gouache". At the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the towns of Montigny-sur-Loing and Marlotte are many artists living places like Jean-Baptiste Corot, Eugène Thirion (1839-1910), Adrien Schulz (1851-1931), Numa Gillet (1868-1940) and Lucien Cahen-Michel (1888-1980), all attracted by the quality of the landscape and the light. When Eugene Schopin founded in 1872 a ceramics factory, he worked with the painters to create a range of designs inspired by Impressionism and decorated according to new public demands. Several ceramic factories will develop around this Impressionist movement. The most famous, such as Georges Delvaux (1834-1909), Albert Boué (1862-1918) and Charles Alphonse Petit (1862-1927), will produce until 1922. Other manufacturers, such as Theodore Lefront...
