Neoclassical Furniture
NEOCLASSICAL STYLE
Neoclassical design emerged in Europe in the 1750s, as the Age of Enlightenment reached full flower. Neoclassical furniture took its cues from the styles of ancient Rome and Athens: symmetrical, ordered, dignified forms with such details as tapered and fluted chair and table legs, backrest finials and scrolled arms.
Over a period of some 20 years, first in France and later in Britain, neoclassical design — also known as Louis XVI, or Louis Seize — would supersede the lithe and curvaceous Rococo or Louis XV style.
The first half of the 18th century had seen a rebirth of interest in classical antiquity. The "Grand Tour" of Europe, codified as a part of the proper education of a patrician gentleman, included an extended visit to Rome. Some ventured further, to sketch the ruins of ancient Greece. These drawings and others — particularly those derived from the surprising and rich archaeological discoveries in the 1730s and ’40s at the sites of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum — caused great excitement among intellectuals and aesthetes alike.
Neoclassical furniture is meant to reflect both grace and power. The overall appearance of neoclassical chairs, tables and cabinetry is strong and rectilinear. These pieces are, in effect, classical architecture in miniature: chair and table legs are shaped like columns; cabinets are constructed with elements that mirror friezes and pediments.
Yet neoclassicism is enlivened by gilt and silver leaf, marquetry, and carved and applied ornamental motifs based on Greek and Roman sculpture: acanthus leaves, garlands, laurel wreaths, sheaves of arrow, medallions and chair splats are carved in the shapes of lyres and urns. Ormolu — or elaborate bronze gilding — was essential to French design in the 18th and 19th centuries as a cornerstone of the neoclassical and Empire styles.
As you can see from the furniture on these pages, there is a bit of whimsy in such stately pieces — a touch of lightness that will always keep neoclassicism fresh.

Height: 30 cm (11.81 inches)
Jules Vieillard in Bordeaux
In 1840, Jules Vieillard (June 8, 1813 – September 17, 1868), a native of Paris already renowned in the field of porcelain, partnered with David Johnston, who ran a large faience factory in the Bacalan district, employing over 700 workers and producing 70,000 pieces per week. David Johnston, a native of Bordeaux of English origin who would later become mayor of Bordeaux, was somewhat overwhelmed by the management of the business and was forced to sell it to his associate Jules Vieillard in February 1845.
Appreciated by Brongniart, the director of the Royal Sèvres Manufacture, the fine faience of Bordeaux won medals at various universal exhibitions in Paris and enlisted the services of Bordeaux painters and lithographers. Vieillard conducted firing tests and, in 1851, filed a patent. In 1852, Napoleon III, visiting Bordeaux, toured the Manufacture, which then employed 800 workers, awarded the Legion of Honor to Jules Vieillard, who shared his thoughts on the upcoming trade treaty between England and France. In 1854, Jules Vieillard received the gold medal at the Philomathic Exhibition and in 1855 the first-class medal at the Universal Exhibition in Paris.
A very practical mind, Vieillard gradually moved away from English inspiration and created new, very colorful models with floral or oriental motifs. He invented many particularly charming models in both faience and porcelain, including table services, lamps, bowls, clocks, candlesticks, holy water fonts, vases, bottles, salt shakers, torches, and crucifixes. A wonderful collection of extreme finesse and great originality.
In 1859, the report of the 10th Philomathic Exhibition in Bordeaux mentioned that "Jules Vieillard heads one of the finest establishments that France can...

18th Century Bossi Hand-Carved Statuary Marble Fireplace with Scagliola Inlay
By Pietto Bossi
Located in London, GB
This white hand-carved marble chimney-piece with Scagliola inlay and break fronted shelf attributed to Pietro Bossi who is known to have worked in Dublin from 1785-1798.
Not much is known about Pietro Bossi, although much inlay work of the late 18th century is commonly known as`Bossi-work'. An Italian craftsman, Bossi worked in Dublin from 1785-1798 and used colored marble inlay and also a colored paste inlay, known as Scagliola, on a white marble ground.
His designs are in the neoclassical style, a style disseminated by Robert Adam in 1770s. Bossi`s process was a closely guarded secret and was apparently carried out behind closed doors.
Although, there were other craftsmen producing this type of work, the present chimney-piece can be attributed to Bossi because it shares some distinctive decoration with other pieces strongly believed to be by him. The overall style is typical of Bossi.
This unique marble fireplace mantel-piece is believed to originate from a wing of Huntroyde Hall...

Early 19th Century Spode Red Greek Pattern Tile
By Spode, Josiah Spode
Located in Fort Lauderdale, FL
A Neoclassical red transferware tile made by Spode 1806-1810, with the ‘Zeus in His Chariot’ pattern.
Sir William Hamilton’s Collection of Etruscan, Greek and Roman antiquities, first published in 1766 by Pierre d’Hancarville, was a landmark publication in English design. It intended to disseminate the Antique style through its engravings of Attic pottery. The catalog’s faithful reproductions of Classical vases led British potteries, including Spode, to adapt or even copy the ancient art for modern life. These Spode Greek pattern tiles reflect the major influence of Hamilton’s catalog on English Neoclassicism. The central scene was taken directly from the catalog.
This tile can be dated to a narrow window of production in the Spode factory, 1806-1810. During that time, Spode used a technique known as the “Pluck and Dust” method to print in red transfer designs onto creamware. Using this method, source prints were transferred overglaze using tissue imprinted with a very faint rendition of the design outlined in sticky oil. The decorator applied the tissue to the object then carefully “plucked” or pulled it away, leaving the sticky oil design behind. Then, a finely-ground enamel color was “dusted” onto the surface, sticking to any areas that had the oil. A final firing at a low temperature in the enamel kiln made the pattern permanent. The Pluck and Dust technique improved upon bat-printing and enabled larger designers to be transferred. It was short-lived, however, as under-glaze transfer printing soon took over as the preferred method for producing transferwares.
Dimensions: 5 in. x 5 in. x 1/4 in.
