Pair of Sèvres porcelain vases mounted in gilt bronze and painted by J. Machereau, circa 1870

This beautiful pair of covered vases made of porcelain originally comes from the Manufacture of Sèvres where the white pieces were bought in 1869, decorated then mounted in gilt bronze by J. Machereau. He is designated as “ porcelain painter and decorator” in the Didot Bottin and has worked between 1860 and 1877, in a first time associated with Caille in the 216 Faubourg Saint-Denis, the alone from 1867, in the 22 Faubourg du Temple. The purchase archives in the Manufacture of Sèvres show that he used to buy pieces in white which he decorated next. His work and his life are unfortunately not that much studies, nevertheless, we know that he participated in the International Exhibition of 1867 in Paris in the Ceramic and porcelain area, where he received a bronze medal for tender porcelain. Then, he also participated in the one in 1878 where our pair of vases were exhibited as testifies the label inside the lid : « Machereau Paris. Exposition universelle 1878. 22 Faubourg du Temple ». During this exhibition he won a silver medal and was noticed by the Royal Society of Arts of London for « the exquisite decoration » of his vases, « nicely mounted with gilt bronzes”. The French newspaper L’Univers Illustré also spoke of his work in its publication from June, 22th 1878, for the presentation of «a very interesting shelf » made by the artiste « who knows how to mix with art the soft porcelain and the gilt bronzes ». On these oval vases the cobalt blue, typical of the Sèvres manufactory, in particular on the extremities, on the flaring foot, the neck and the lid. These parts painted in blue are adorned with a golden decoration of scrolls with leaves. The vases are put on a gilt bronze quadrangular foot. They are adorned in each angle with a square motif imitating the acanthus leaves that we also find on the feet. A laurel crown joins the vase and its foot. As four the lid, we find on its extremity, a frieze of palms and on the top a very remarkably chiseled gilt bronze pine cone. The belly also can turn allowing us to admire the two faces welcoming pastoral scenes. Indeed, on the totality of the vases belly and on the two faces, pastoral scenes are painted, typical of the mid 18th century kind, framed up and down by a white pearled border. These four scenes, in the taste of Jean-Baptiste Huet (1845-1811) or Joseph Vernet (1714-1789) take place in a rural landscape with woods, sometimes inhabited by a house in the background. The vivid colors in the first plan fade on the background to pastel tones and a blurry decor. The scenes seem to unveil themselves to the indiscretion of the spectator, framed by big trees emphasized by the precision of their details and the more vivid colors. In each scene, we see a shepherdess holding in one of her hands a stick and chaperoning her flock composed of cows, goats and sheep drinking in the middle of a river. In two scenes she is also accompanied by a man on a horse, standing in the background. The two paintings on the two faces are not separated but linked with a decoration depicting a luxurious forest with vivid colors.

Mantel with Vansittart and Crosbie coat of arms

Originating from the sumptuous Villa Salviati in Tuscany, this mantel top was created when the couple Arthur Vansittart and Diana Crosbie refurbished part of the villa's interior décor between 1844 and 1854. The villa, an important 15th-century Italian Renaissance work, was rented by the Vansittarts in 1836 before being purchased in 1844 with all its contents. They finally sold the villa in 1854, after moving many of the paintings and much of the furniture to Foots Cray Place in Kent. Our mantelpiece therefore dates from the period of occupation of the villa once purchased, between 1844 and 1854. It may be part of a redesign of some of the villa's interiors. An album of photographic views of the Villa Salviati dating from 1900-1920 shows our mantelpiece still in place in one of the rooms.

Wall Clock in Carved Wood and Hardstone – 19th Century

A striking Japonist wall clock crafted in dark walnut wood, adorned with inlaid panels of deep green hardstone. The radiating fan-shaped structure is enriched with fantastical and mythological figures. At its center, a scaly-bodied dragon-like creature grasps a silver serpent in its jaws—the sinuous serpent forming the clock’s hands. The hours are marked by white enamel cartouches set in gilt frames. Flanking each side, two grotesque hybrid creatures with bat-like wings and expressive faces enhance the dreamlike and fantastical nature of the piece. This clock is a rare example of decorative sculpture blending Asian-inspired forms with Western imagination, reflecting the 19th-century fascination with exoticism.
