Pair of French Japonisme Ormolu Vases E. Lièvre, Executed by F. Barbedienne
About the Item
An important and monumental pair of very fine 19th century French Japonisme/Orientalist ormolu vases designed by Edouard Lièvre and Executed by Ferdinand Barbedienne. Each body with an oval shape, finely sculpted in a floral design, fringed by orientalist style handles with cartouches, the neck surmounted by a circular pierced scrolling dragon frieze. Each vase resting on a group of four orientalist style jeweled elephant heads, each base signed and inscribed: F. BARBEDIENNE.
Edouard Lièvre (1829-1886) was one of the greatest designers of the late 19th century. He was mostly known for his orientalist and Japonism styles. He designed many pieces, which were executed by F. Barbedienne and Christofle, and many retailed by A L'Escalier de Cristal, located near the Opera, 6 rue Scribe in Paris. These exceptional vases are very similar to the persian vase, executed by Lièvre, and exhibited at the Paris Expositions Universelles in the year 1878.

The quality and craftsmanship of this piece is second to none. Baccarat crystal is known to be the best crystal in the world and this piece appropriately demonstrates that. The crystal vase is seated on four beautifully cast and hand-chiseled ormolu turtles, representing the Japanese artistic movement in France at the time, known as 'Japonisme'. The body of the vase is a gorgeously hand painted with raised gold and enamel decoration of a turtle and various other decorations, making it seem as though the turtle is swimming in a lake. Underneath the turtle are painted rocks and mosses, while above the turtle are cherry trees, dropping their fruit into the water. On the reverse of the main panel are two turtles swimming...Category
