Description

An evocation of a distant, refined world, this Nevers earthenware bouquetière, attributed to the Georges faience factory (circa 1880-1900), gracefully illustrates the West's fascination with chinoiserie.
On a curved form of great elegance, an oriental figure draped in a yellow and blue tunic meditates amid flowers and insects. The upper part, perforated with multiple openings, was intended to hold flowering stems, in the tradition of decorative "bouquetières murales" of the XIXᵉ century.
The fresh tones - golden ochre, soft green, cobalt blue and manganese brown - recall the heyday of Nevers earthenware, where eye and hand converse in a glow of enamel and light. Two sculpted masks on the sides gently watch over this poetic scene.

A decorative and symbolic piece
A typical piece of the neo-rococo revival of the late XIXᵉ century, this bouquetière testifies to the art of bringing nature and oriental reverie into dialogue, in the spirit of winter gardens and the refined interiors of the Belle Époque.
