About the Item

A French 19th century petite faience covered bowl with floral and bird's nest barbotine décor. This exquisite French pottery features a round dark brown body, adorned with an exuberant floral décor, typical of the barbotine productions. The barbotine being quite malleable has allowed the maker to apply an abundant décor made of colorful flowers cloaking within their bosom a delicate bird's nest with its eggs. The pastel colors used on this applied décor is made of light pink, blue, yellow and green, contrasting beautifully against the darker background. Its small proportions and lovely colors will make this French covered bowl pottery an excellent decorative accent in any room, perhaps placed on a small chest of drawers, shelf or guéridon table.

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...
