A Paris porcelain teapot decorated with a delicate polychrome pattern known as "Barbels," enhanced with fine gold lines and scrolls. It is complete with its lid featuring a fruit-shaped finial. Very fine quality, unsigned. It is the work of an 18th-century Parisian porcelain manufactory, probably that of the Duke of Angoulême.
The Duke of Angoulême's manufactory, located on Rue de Bondy, was one of many Parisian manufactories that sought the patronage of a member of the Royal Family to obtain a privilege and the prestige of a name and coat of arms that they could display on their storefront and invoices. The high-ranking figure received substantial financial compensation. This was also the case for the manufactories of the Count of Provence, the Count of Artois, the Duke of Orléans, the Queen, and even the very young Duke of Angoulême, aged six. This system disappeared during the French Revolution with the abolition of privileges.
Beautiful collector's item, in perfect condition. Nearly 240 years old and like new.
