About the Item
An extremely rare and unusual Pair Of North European Ormolu, Cut-Glass, and Tôle-Peinte Potted Hyacinths/Cachepots, Possibly Baltic, Circa 1815-1825.
Each Modeled As A Tôle-Peinte Sprig Of Hyacinth In An Ormolu And Cut-Glass Box Planter.
Provenance, Kugel Galleries
The set features two sprigs of hyacinth—one with ballet pink petals and another with baby blue. The stem and leaves are painted with dark forest green and attached to the cut glass and ormolu base. Shaped into a rectangular prism, the cut glass vase is textured with vertical pillar flutes. It is sandwiched between the ormolu mouth and base, which are also rectangular in shape and feature geometric ormolu patterning. These are the best quality of mercury gilt ormolu that were produced. The gilding of these cachepots is stunning and the hand-chisel and chase work is unmatched.
Meant to be a delightful, buoyant decoration for interior spaces, Tôle-Peinte enlivens metalwork with bright colors and a delicate luster. Tôle-Peinte is a method of hand-painting on shaped metalware and is typically found on tables and kitchenware.
