About the Item
Pair of porcelain characters realized by Jacob Petit a famous French manufacturer located in Paris. The pair represents two anthropomorphic monkeys dressed in a fancy way reminding the 18th century, the female characters featuring typical Marie-Antoinette's colors in Sevres Manufacture. The hats are removable, forming lids and each character is heavily highlighted with gold.
Each sculpture is signed with Jacob Petit's initials below in blue letters.
Jacob Mardochée (1797- 1868), well known under the name of Jacob Petit since 1816 was a famous french porcelain manufacturer, student of the french painter Antoine Gros. He was at the head of Fontainebleau manufacture before only being dedicated to ornamental porcelain. His style, very recognizable with its vivid color and its picturesque details was decried through his lifetime but is now is very valued because typical of a certain 19th-century style with wonderful know-how.

Zoomorphic Partridge Ewer Blue French Glass Late 19th century
By Portieux Vallerysthal
Located in Paris, FR
Original zoomorphic pitcher ewer in the shape of a partridge. Beautiful item made of silver plate for the head of the partridge nicely chiseled showing the lovely texture of feathers and blown blue glass for the body part, with a handle on the back. Yellow-colored glass eyes. The Head of the partridge is mounted on a hinge forming a movable lid for the pitcher-ewer.
This kind of pitcher ewer was mainly used to serve delicious alcohol or liquor with flavor and aroma, such as pear, and mirabelle plum, as it was during the "Belle Epoque" a very fashionable and refined custom.
This colored blown glass was produced by the Portieux Crystal factory created in 1705, it has a written mark "Deposé" beneath the body of the ewer, french work from the late 19th century, probably from Napoleon III period.
The history of this factory known as the "Portieux crystal factory" actually begins in Tonnoy in 1690. In 1698, Duke Leopold I of Lorraine granted letters patent to Sieur de la Pommeraye, owner of the premises, associated with François Magnien, holder of the know-how, the exclusivity of glass manufacturing and trade in his duchy.
In 1898, the Grand Duchess of Vladimir, wife of the brother of Tsar Nicolas II, discovered the factory while on a cure in Contrexéville. She will become a frequent customer.

Porcelain Clock in the Louis XV Style by Jacob Petit
By Jacob Petit
Located in London, GB
This antique porcelain mantel clock demonstrates the 19th century nostalgia for the delicately elegant decorative arts under King Louis XV, also known as the Rococo style.
Crafted by celebrated porcelain artist Jacob Petit, this exquisite clock is particularly notable for the way in which the porcelain has been shaped so as to give the clock such a whimsically free-spirited, scrolling shape. The clock is formed as a clock case upon a lower base, which are both decorated as a though a singular piece with green glaze on a white ground, accented with painted floral panels and extensive gilt highlights all over.
The clock case, which is particularly exuberant in design, features a central, circular clock dial. The white enamelled dial is bordered with beaded ormolu, and features black Roman numerals and the inscription 'Scherer'- the name of the 19th century Parisian clock...
