A Pair of Panolith Plaques by Johann Baptist Stahl
About the Item
Signed: Stahl. Both stamped on the reverse with the Mettlach Tower and Mettlach Ges. Gesch 2442, 2443.
The company of Villeroy and Boch began in Audan le Tiche where François Boch opened a pottery company with his three sons in 1748. The company grew and in 1809 Jean-François set up a modern pottery in a Benedictine abbey in Mettlach, Germany on the River Saar. In 1836 Boch merged with his rival Nicholas Villeroy. The golden age of production at Mettlach was at the turn of the twentieth century. During this time, using guarded secret techniques, the etched, glazed, cameo and phanolith (pâte-sur-pâte) wares were at the pinnacle of their production. Pâte-sur-pâte is an elaborate and expensive method of decorating porcelain in which a translucent cameo-like image is built up by the application of many thin coats of porcelaneous slip. Johann Baptist Stahl (1860-1932), celebrated for his cameo and phanolith stoneware models, was active at Mettlach during the period 1895 to 1920.
