About the Book

Excerpt from Queen Anne, Georgian, Chippendale, Examples of Superb Quality, Together With Beautiful Louis XV Needlepoint Furniture: Georgian Silver and English Porcelains; Two Unusual Antwerp Tapestries, Chinese Porcelains and Carvings, Enamels, Syrio-Roman Glass, Stained Glass Panels, Oriental Rugs

The French furniture includes a remarkable Louis XV suite in needle point of the period (nos. 615 to 619) comprising a canape', two bergeres, and six fauteuils; a pair of fauteuils signed by pierre bara (mm. A fauteuil (no. 596) signed by louis delanois and a bergere (no. 632) by J. E. Saint-georges (me. All exhibiting the purity of line which is, paradoxically enough, the hall mark of the finest furniture of the rococo period. This elegance may be seen in the brocade canape' (no. The swanneck lit de repos (no. And the contemporary bedstead (no. 226) of Venetian origin, with its painted lac decoration, all of which are indebted to the good taste of their owner for the effectiveness of their brocade and velvet coverings.

In the third session of the sale will be offered a choice group of Georgian silver. We may select for appreciation a pair of oval platters (nos. 527 and 528) by Auguste Lesage, a pair of graceful sauce boats (no. 525) of the year 1772, and the two George II shell dishes (no.5 By Paul Storr, the outstanding silversmith of the Regency, are a superb tea service (no. 531) in the severe Roman taste of the Empire, and a pair of magnificent wine coolers (no. 532) of the year 1811, with classic gadrooned bodies and lion-mask handles; all these of exceptional weight. In the fashion of the period. As an interpreter of the antique style in England, Storr is, in fact, of the first importance; less fortunate than the country of Percier and Lafontaine, Oberkampf, Jacob and Gouthiére. England entered after 1805 upon a period of decline in the decorative arts in which the fame of her outstanding silversmith was perhaps her unique contribution to their service.

The decorative objects of the collection comprise beadwork, fans and eighteenth century Battersea enamels, syrio-roman iridescent glass, a few Chinese porcelains and semi-precious mineral carvings, and a great number of eighteenth century English porcelains of Chelsea, Worcester, Derby, Spode, and Rockingham, including the crescent-marked Torcester porcelain of the Dr. 7all period (1750-80) and a monumental Derby porcelain dinner service (nos. 338 to 361) of about two hundred and forty pieces. The third session further contains about twenty panels of stained glass, including several excellent memorial miniatures of the Swiss Renaissance; oriental rugs and two unusual tapestries, probably from the Antwerp ateliers, one with grotesqueries (no. The other (no. 642) seme' with the lilies of France upon a beautiful rose pompadour field.
