The fascination with Egypt was both profound and long lasting, and some of the factorys most inventive work is found on services that utilize Egyptian motifs in both two and three dimensions.[1 The curiosity about foreign lands extended far beyond Egypt, however, and the taste for depictions of exotic places lasted into the 1840s.[2 The popularity of this type of subject matter coincided with a growing interest in creating thematic programs for multi-piece services.[3 In a letter from 1834, Alexandre Brongniart (French, 1770-1847), director of the Sèvres factory, stated his belief in the importance of linking sets of objects together by theme, as well aTRÈFLE. Acquired by the artist on the Paris World Fair 1900Cup - Goblet, 1700-1800. Made in England. Pinto Collection - Purchased from Edward H Pinto, 1965.. This laburnum wood goblet is one of a pair, probably dating from the eighteenth century. We can tell that it was made on a pole lathe because the point where the goblet was held in place on the lathe leaves a characteristic mark on the base. It is very difficult to date these plain wooden goblets accurately as styles and patterns changed very slowly over the years. Laburnum wood was an interesting choice for this goblet as its warm tones and contrasting dark heart and yellow sapwood help to add a certain beauty and finesse to an otherwise everyday object.Set of four wine coolers, 1828, Edward, Edward, James, and Barnard (a.k.a.

The modeling realistically creates the impression of cut leather panels laced together, enclosing an inner container. The painted decoration makes no reference, however, to the function of the pilgrim flasks; the figures of Cupid and Psyche are based on popular sculptures by Etienne-Maurice Falconet (1716-1791).Jeffrey H.
