About the Item

Up for your consideration is a hand painted and hand decorated small tureen by Haviland in the Fleurs Parisiennes pattern on Cannele blank, measuring 3.1" and 8.5" with 5.4" opening. The back-marks on the bottom are H&C*/Depose underglaze mark, dating back to 1887, and the circular Haviland Limoges decorator/overglaze mark (mark g, according to Haviland's Collectors International Foundation reference sheet) in brown (color indicates premium decor pieces on Haviland porcelain made in that period), dating back to 1879-1889. Cannele blank ("fluted"), influenced by traditional Japanese bowl shape called "kaki" or "chrysanthemum", was one of the new blanks created in 1880-1890s by Haviland's artists at the peak of Japonisme movement, after European artists and artisans become exposed to Japanese art. Cannele was hugely popular at the time and won the Grand Prix of 1889 Paris's World Fair. The Fleurs Parisiennes is one of the less common Haviland patterns; originally it was created in 1886 by one of Haviland's Auteil Studio painters, Girardin, for service commissioned by King Luis I of Portugal. According to multiple sources, the service is still kept in the Palacio d'Ajuda in Lisbon. The pattern consists of 12 different multifloral designs done in style of Impressionism. As it was common, the pattern was later reused commercially, so it can be found on other pieces apart from the royal service. One the tureen's cover lid one of the flower designs was placed, as a lithographic transfer, on hand painted background of blue sky and rose cream-colored clouds (possibly indicating sunset) and hand decorated with raised off-white enamel accents to create 3d effect and add depth and brilliance on flower petals and leaves. Such hand detailing was primarily used on premium, more expensive porcelain, made by more skilled artisans at the Haviland's workshop, as opposed to pieces decorated by hand-placed transfers only. The main decor is framed by a solid 1" border in sophisticated bright pink color that is outlined with brushed gold accents. The body of the tureen is decorated in the same pink color with brushed gold accents, handles are done in solid gold, and the inside of the tureen is left undecorated aside from the brown decorator mark on the inside of the tureen's cover.

Majolica Serving Tureen & Lid Chippendale Bamboo Decor, Italy 1960s
By Mottahedeh
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Striking serving set of tureen with lid and underplate features ceramic or porcelain body with faux bamboo decor, forming a strong geometric trim in Chinese Chippendale style. Warm, buttery yellow colors of the bamboo trellises with mocha brown accents are meticulously hand-painted with great detail; the faux bamboo trellis, done in relief, stands out on white background. The lid has an opening for the serving utensils. The tureen and the underplate are marked with "Made in Italy" on the bottoms; the pieces are missing the distributor stickers. The Chinese Chippendale style was popular in Italy in 1960s, and fine examples of Italian designs were produced by multiple companies, including the luxury furniture company Vivai Del Sud, which made both furniture and decor items, such as lamps, in this style. We're attributing the set to Mottahedeh, who sourced high quality Italian majolica in similar styles; the pieces will be simply marked ITALY or "Made in Italy" and Mottahedeh will add their paper stickers. As the pieces are quite old, the stickers often get lost or destroyed. The tureen with its classic shape, detailed decor, and historically inspired design will blend quite well with many china and serverware patterns, both in traditional and more modern styles. Overall, the piece is surprizingly reminiscent of the beautiful Vannerie Cottage pattern by Alberto Pinto, inspired by Jean-Michel Frank’s Bauhaus rattan...
