18th Century Sèvres style porcelain Bottle Cooler (Seaux a bouteille)

About the Item

18th Century Sèvres style blue ground and gilt metal mounted Seaux a bouteille, the blue ground body with two opposing painted oval panels within a gilt lattice work and dot pattern surround, one panel painted in colours with a young lady wearing a red and yellow dress and a bonnet with three ostrich feather plumes and holding a pole with a flag, the other panel in grisaille with a small naked boy standing holding a shield and sword , the whole on a plain gilt metal circular foot rim. Base with blue Sevres mark for 1767 and decorators mark S ( Pierre Antoine Meraud). Note, the porcelain blank is likely to have originated from Sevres, however the decoration would have been carried out later, circa 1830's, either in France or possibly in the UK. The attributed decorator (Pierre Antoine Meraud) was more widely known for flower decoration and not portrait's, so his decoration is likely to have been replaced with the more fashionable decoration of the later period.

Very Large Antique French Sevres Style Porcelain Vase
By Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres
Located in London, GB
Very large antique French Sèvres style porcelain vase French, Late 19th Century Height 154cm, diameter 41cm This fantastic vase is the work of J.
