SEVRES New hard-paste porcelain baluster vase, likely in the Diderot style, decorated with blue crystalline enamels featuring frosted flower motifs on an ochre background. Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, 1922 Black stamped mark with “S” and “DN” dated 1922 on the inner neck; incised marks dated May 1922 on the reverse. H. 64 cm History: The crystallization technique was developed around 1882 in the Sèvres Manufactory’s laboratory, but it was not immediately adopted in the decoration workshops. Taking a bolder approach, the Royal Copenhagen Porcelain Factory began using this discovery as early as 1883 to create an aesthetic effect and set a trend. In 1990, at the Paris World’s Fair, the manufactories of Copenhagen, Berlin, Meissen, and Sèvres displayed crystallized pieces at their booths. All demonstrate a perfect mastery of the firing of the enamel, which is composed primarily of zinc. The glaze replicates a natural phenomenon found in the mineral world: marcasite stars, malachite nodules, desert roses, and frost flowers. Expert: Maxime Charron & Associates
