Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

Based on an 18th-century model, this beautiful Louis XV-style cooling bucket is hand-painted on the belly in polychrome with branched birds, and here and there are insects, butterflies, ladybugs, cockchafers, and other motifs. The body, which rests on a pedestal, is slightly twisted and adorned in the upper part with a raised basketwork design. On each side, there is a shell-shaped handle enhanced with gold. The mark, representing the intertwined initials AR affixed to the reverse, is that of Meissen under Augustus the Strong, King of Poland, and owner of the factory from 1723 to 1736. This mark was adopted in the 19th century, particularly by the Helena Wolfsohn Factory, which produced very fine porcelain from 1843 to 1883 and is likely the originator of this cooling bucket.
Height 26 cm. width 22 cm.
