19th Century French Blue Barbotine Jardiniere with Stand

About the Item

19th century French blue Barbotine Jardiniere with stand is a colorful and vibrant example of the amazing pottery that emanated from northern France over the past several centuries. Cast in a classic form, the bottom bells out slightly according to the original designs that enhanced stability. This example survives with its original three legged stand, a separate piece, that features likenesses of Satyrs that accompanied Bacchus in his exploits. The God of mirth, wine and pleasures of the flesh had quite a following at one time, and is still remembered primarily for his love of the grape harvest and of course, wine. Bold grape leaves encircle the form in bas relief, highlighted in green to complement yet stand out from the rich cobalt blue of the background. The colors remain vibrant even after the passage of more than a century thanks to the paint formulas, glazing techniques and kiln work perfected over the course of centuries. Large enough to contain a separately potted plant, it's also a great choice for permanent floral displays. Circa 1880s Measures 17.5 Height x 13.5 in diameter, including separate stand.

19th Century French Painted Ceramic Barbotine Jardinière with Floral Decor
Located in Dallas, TX
This elegant colorful hand painted Majolica planter was sculpted in Montigny sur Loing, France, circa 1860. The ceramic jardinière with root shape handles features high relief soft pink, blue and beige rose flowers with pale green leaves, and brown and grey background. The ceramic vase is in good condition commensurate with age and use (minor chips on few petals). 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...
