Louis XV Serveware, Ceramics, Silver and Glass

LOUIS XV STYLE

The style of 18th-century French furniture was guided by the court. When Louis XV, who reigned from 1715–74, focused royal life on the smaller salons of Versailles rather than its grand chambers, it transformed the aesthetics away from the imposing and angular furniture that characterized the style of Louis XIV. A broader focus on comfort and more delicate forms define antique Louis XV furniture, with nature-inspired carvings, wood inlays, curved cabriole legs, asymmetrical shapes and rounded oval seat backs. The furnishings changed throughout the king’s life, as he ascended to the throne as a child and then grew to establish his own tastes.

Pieces like the bergère, an upholstered armchair with a wide cushion that fit the flowing dresses in fashion at the time, reflected this more informal court. Introduced at the start of Louis XV’s reign, bergère chairs in this style were deeper and broader than other chairs of the period.

Louis XV tapestries and carpets tended to be floral and colorful, and design elements were borrowed from Asia. Dutch-born cabinetmaker Bernard van Risenburgh brought lacquer techniques influenced by Japan and China into his luxuriously made furniture. Along with its fine details, the furniture of the era also featured new innovations including mechanical devices. Jean François Oeben, a royal cabinetmaker, created such intricate pieces as a mechanical table for Madame de Pompadour, Louis XV’s mistress. It involved a sliding top and a writing surface that extended from its marquetry panels.

During the later years of Louis XV’s reign, there was a shift from the ostentatious rocaille style, part of the exuberantly decorative Rococo movement in Europe for which designers such as Nicolas Pineau and Juste-Aurèle Meissonier are known. The style under Louis XVI would return to boxier forms, but with a neoclassical touch inspired by the ancient world.

Located in Wilmington, DE

Direct from a Private Chateau, a Stunning 184pc. Gold Plated Sterling Silver (Vermeil) Flatware Set by Internationally Known French Silversmiths "Societe Parisienne d'Orfevrerie" Complete with Original 6-Drawer Storage Cabinet and 16 Magnificent Serving Pieces, Superb Condition - circa 1911.- NO MONOGRAMS. The Société Parisienne d'Orfèvrerie, a prominent French silversmith firm, has left an indelible mark on the world of decorative arts. Established in the heart of Paris during the 19th century, the firm quickly rose to prominence, becoming synonymous with exquisite craftsmanship, innovative design, and unparalleled quality in silverware. Founded in 1837 by master silversmith Jean-Baptiste-Claude Odiot, a visionary artisan with a passion for creating exceptional silver pieces; the firm's commitment to quality quickly attracted the attention of aristocrats, royalty, and the burgeoning bourgeoisie. Under the leadership of subsequent generations of the Odiot family, the firm continued to thrive, adapting to changing tastes and styles while maintaining its dedication to superior craftsmanship. Société Parisienne d'Orfèvrerie's list of accomplishments is as extensive as it is impressive. The firm's silverware adorned the tables of European royalty, including Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie, establishing its reputation as the preferred purveyor of luxury items. The intricate silver pieces produced by the firm were not merely functional objects but symbols of status, wealth, and refined taste. One of the firm's standout achievements was its participation in the Exposition Universelle of 1855 in Paris. The international exhibition provided a platform for Société Parisienne d'Orfèvrerie to showcase its finest creations to a global audience, earning accolades and further solidifying its status as a premier silversmith firm. The recognition of Société Parisienne d'Orfèvrerie's excellence extended beyond the acclaim of its clientele. The firm received numerous awards and honors for its contributions to the field of decorative arts. At the Exposition Universelle of 1867, Société Parisienne d'Orfèvrerie was awarded the prestigious Legion of Honor, a testament to its exceptional craftsmanship and artistic innovation. Subsequent international exhibitions, including the Exposition Universelle of 1878 and 1889, brought further accolades to the firm. The awards bestowed upon Société Parisienne d'Orfèvrerie underscored its global impact and the recognition of its silverware as exemplars of artistic and technical achievement. Each piece (except for the coffee spoons) in this amazing set bears the hallmark of Master French Silversmith "Societe Parisienne d'Orfevrerie" in addition to the French Government's "Head of the Minerva-1" hallmark. The coffee spoons bears the manufacturer's hallmark "SL" and are in gold plated 800 silver. The set is of exceptional quality and craftsmanship and includes the original custom made storage chest that measures 51 cm. in length, 43 cm. high and 37 cm. deep. All weights and measures below are approximate: 12 Dinner Knives - Stainless Blades 25.50 cm. 100 grams 12 Dinner Forks 21.30 cm. 82 grams 12 Tablespoons 21.50 cm. 86 grams 12 Luncheon Knives - Stainless Blades 21.50 cm. 65 grams 12 luncheon / Dessert Forks 18.50 cm. 52 grams 12 Luncheon / Dessert Spoons 18.30 cm. 52 grams 12 Fish Forks 18.30 cm. 56 grams 12 Fish Knives 22.00 cm. 64 grams 12 Dessert / Custard Spoons 18.50 cm. 57 grams 12 Oyster Forks 12.30 cm. 21 grams 12 Teaspoons 13.50 cm. 27 grams 12 Ice Cream Spoons 13.50 cm. 28 grams 12 Coffee Spoons (different pattern) 10.50 cm. 18 grams 12 Cake Forks 14.20 cm. 26 grams 1 Large Salad Serving Spoon 26.00 cm. 117 grams 1 Large Salad Serving Fork 26.00 cm. 115 grams 1 Serving Knife with Stainless Blade 20.50 cm. 76 grams 1 Cheese Serving Knife - Stainless Blade 25.00 cm. 99 grams 1 Gigot Holder 20.00 cm. 149 grams 1 Butter Serving Knife...

Located in New Orleans, LA

Crafted by French master silversmith Jean-Baptiste-François Chéret, this period Louis XV tureen boasts exceptional decoration, including delicate and refined engraving, shell and acanthus accents, and a remarkably detailed cast finial of cauliflower, celery and carrots. Thanks to a very strict guild system, French silver has always been among the finest in the world. It was also subject to the various fiscal crises of the late 17th and 18th centuries, as both Louis XIV and Louis XV issued edicts demanding that all silver be brought to the mint for melting, with the resulting coin to be used to replenish depleted state treasuries. French silver from this extravagant era survives only in relatively small quantities, and is thus in great demand by collectors. The tureen is marked on the interior lid and underside. The large object charge mark identified as a crown over the letter “A...
