EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite porcelain night light, or veilleuse, hails from the renowned Marieberg factory in Sweden during the 18th century. The delicate and intricately molded design features elegant tulips and roses, their petals and leaves meticulously crafted to capture the essence of nature's beauty. The night light, a popular item during the 18th and 19th centuries, was used to provide a soft and soothing glow in the dark hours, adding a touch of warmth and charm to the home. This image is a hand-finished chromolithograph, a printing technique that gained popularity in the 19th century for its ability to produce vibrant and detailed colors. The print is taken from "Histoire Generale de la Faience, Ancienne et Etrangère," a comprehensive work on ancient French and foreign glazed pottery by the renowned French publisher, Ris Paquot. The publication showcases the finest examples of porcelain and pottery from around the world, highlighting the artistic achievements of various cultures and time periods. The intricate details of the molded tulips and roses on the Marieberg night light are beautifully captured in this hand-finished chromolithograph, providing a glimpse into the artistic mastery of the past. The delicate and refined design, combined with the rich colors and intricate details of the print, make this a truly captivating and timeless piece, transporting us back to the elegance and sophistication of the 18th century.
