Ewer ca. 1850 François-Desiré Froment-Meurice Froment-Meurice, among the most renowned silversmiths of mid-nineteenth-century Paris, was a historicist whose work embraced medieval, Renaissance, and Islamic styles, which he charged with an abundance of sculptural ornament. Here, in a radical departure both from his own manner and from the prevailing taste of the period, he let the suavely curved profiles speak for themselves, emphasizing them through the use of a single all over trellis and flower-head pattern, adjusted in scale and rhythm to each change of surface (see also 1999.217.2). Combining traditional and new techniques, Froment-Meurice introduced both chromatic and textural variety through chasing, engraving, and electroplated gilding in two colorsyellow and greenish white goldon a ground that had been partly polished and partly acid etched. Froment-Meurice frequently repeated his models, and this ensemble is one of three known versions. It was perhaps an experimental design

Pair of Candlevases, 1773. Ormolu with white marble and opaque white glass.. Manufacturers: Matthew Boulton, John Fothergill. Glass maker: James Keir.. During the second half of the eighteenth century ornamental vases were very popular, in some cases sets of up to seven vases were produced to be placed together on a chimneypiece... Boulton was one of the first manufacturers to seize on the commercial opportunities created by the craze for the 'antique taste', or neo-classicism as we now refer to it, which flourished in the 1760s.. Objects like this one were known as candle vases as they could be used to hold a candle or as a vase.. Ornamental wares of this and simpler kinds made up the bulk of Boulton's production.
