About the Item
A refined pair of French porcelain pedestal compotes, likely Paris or Limoges manufacture, dating to the late 19th century. Each features a shallow circular dish elevated on a turned baluster stem and flaring circular foot. The surfaces are coated in a vivid bleu céleste glaze and richly adorned with matte and burnished gilt decoration depicting fruiting branches, butterflies, and insects, arranged in a naturalistic pattern. The central reserves are left white, creating a strong contrast against the saturated turquoise ground.
The stems are ornamented with applied white beaded rings, adding dimension and elegance to the form, while the bases repeat the gilt floral motifs, encircled by a gilt rim with raised white enamel accents. The underside of one compote bears a painted decorator’s mark and number in red enamel, typical of Parisian porcelain firms working during the late 19th century.
The combination of the deep blue ground and restrained gilding reflects the influence of mid-19th-century French decorative tastes inspired by Sèvres but produced by independent Parisian workshops. These compotes would have served as decorative table pieces, likely for fruit or confectionery.

Sevres 19th C., Chateau Des Tuileries 1846 Louis Phillippe Cup / Saucer Set
By Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres
Located in Atlanta, GA
Sevres, 20 Pieces (10 Sets) Circa 1846. Made for the Chateau Des Tuileries service of Louis Phillippe
This exquisite Sèvres porcelain cup and saucer grouping (10 sets) dates to the Louis-Philippe era, featuring the royal monogram of King Louis-Philippe I (reigned 1830–1848). The monogram, prominently displayed on the saucers, is encircled by a laurel wreath and crowned, signifying its royal provenance and connection to French aristocracy. The set was likely commissioned for or associated with the Château des Tuileries, as indicated by the markings on the underside.
The design includes a regal cobalt blue border with intricate gilded ivy patterns, hand-painted cherubs, and floral medallions on the tea cups. Gilded accents, including the delicate handles, enhance the opulence of this neoclassical-style set. The artistry and precision reflect the mastery of the Sèvres porcelain factory during this period.
This Louis-Philippe monogrammed tea set is a rare and historically significant collection, ideal for collectors of French royal memorabilia or fine European porcelain...
