Pair of 1900's Blue porcelain vases from Tours
About the Item
Pair of 1900 vases in blue porcelain of Tours with gilded decoration of roses topped by ribbons. These gold-coloured motifs are typical of the Art Nouveau decorations of the ceramist Frederic Gustave Asch (1856-1911). Active towards the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, he also worked for the Manufacture de Sainte-Radegonde. His "Bleu de Tours" associated with delicate gilded naturalistic motifs, made his reputation. Our vases are marked "France" and the small axe for Gustave Asch underneath.

On May 25, 1718, Emperor Karl VI signed a "special privilege" awarding Claudius Innocentius du Paquier the exclusive right to produce porcelain in the Austrian crown lands. Production being almost exclusively for the imperial household and the court nobility. During the rococo era, Empress Maria Theresia placed the company under imperial ownership and it was during this period that the manufactory began to produce the famous rococo genre scenes after Watteau.
