    ‘A Mind to Copy’: Inspired by Meissen Anton Gabszewicz Independent Ceramic Historian, London Figure 1. Sir Charles Hanbury Williams by John Giles Eccardt. 1746 (National Portrait Gallery, London.) 20 he association between Nicholas Sprimont, part owner of the Chelsea Porcelain Manufactory, Sir Everard Fawkener, private sec- retary to William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland, the second son of King George II, and Sir Charles Hanbury Williams, diplomat and Tsometime British Envoy to the Saxon Court at Dresden was one that had far-reaching effects on the development and history of the ceramic industry in England. The well-known and oft cited letter of 9th June 1751 from Han- bury Williams (fig. 1) to his friend Henry Fox at Holland House, Kensington, where his china was stored, sets the scene. Fawkener had asked Hanbury Williams ‘…to send over models for different Pieces from hence, in order to furnish the Undertakers with good designs... But I thought it better and cheaper for the manufacturers to give them leave to take away any of my china from Holland House, and to copy what they like.’ Thus allowing Fawkener ‘… and anybody He brings with him, to see my China & to take away such pieces as they have a mind to Copy.’ The result of this exchange of correspondence and Hanbury Williams’ generous offer led to an almost instant influx of Meissen designs at Chelsea, a tremendous impetus to the nascent porcelain industry that was to influ- ence the course of events across the industry in England. Just in taking a ca- sual look through the products of most English porcelain factories during Figure 2.

  • China: Qing Dynasty Porcelain and Global Exchange Pre-Visit
    China: Qing Dynasty Porcelain and Global Exchange Pre-Visit Share this background information with students before your Distance Learning session. Grade Level: Grades 9-12 Collection: East Asian Art Culture/Region: China, East Asia Subject Area: History and Social Science Activity Type: Distance Learning WHY LOOK AT PLATES AND VASES? When visiting a relative or a fancy restaurant, perhaps you have dined on “fine china.” While today we appreciate porcelain dinnerware for the refinement it can add to an occasion, this conception is founded on centuries of exchange between Asian and Western markets. Chinese porcelain production has a long history of experimentation, innovation, and inspiration resulting in remarkably beautiful examples of form and imagery. At the VMFA, you will examine objects from a small portion of this history — the 18th century during the Qing Dynasty — to expand your understanding of global exchange in this era. Because they were made for trade outside of China, these objects are categorized as export porcelain by collectors and art historians. Review the background information below, and think of a few answers you want to look for when you visit VMFA. QING DYNASTY Emperors, Arts, and Trade Around the end of the 16th century, a Jurchin leader named Nurhaci (1559–1626) brought together various nomadic groups who became known as the Manchus. His forces quickly conquered the area of present-day Manchuria, and his heirs set their sights on China. In 1636 the Manchus chose the new name of Qing, meaning “pure,” to emphasize their intention to purify China by seizing power from the Ming dynasty.

  • European Cobalt Sources Identified in the Production of Chinese Famille Rose Porcelain Abstract Keywords
    European cobalt sources identified in the production of Chinese famille rose porcelain Rita Giannini1, Ian C. Freestone2, Andrew J. Shortland1 1 Cranfield Forensic Institute Cranfield University Defence Academy of the United Kingdom Shrivenham Wilts SN6 8LA [email protected] 2 Institute of Archaeology UCL 31-34 Gordon Square London WC1H 0PY Abstract The blue pigments on 112 fragments or small objects of Qing Dynasty Chinese, 95 of underglaze blue and white and 17 overglaze enamelled porcelains were analysed by LA-ICPMS. The underglaze blues on both blue and white and polychrome objects were created with a cobalt pigment that was rich in manganese with lesser nickel and zinc. This suite of accessory elements is generally considered to be characteristic of local, Chinese, sources of pigments. However, the blue enamels were very different. The cobalt pigment here has low levels of manganese and instead is rich in nickel, zinc, arsenic and bismuth. No Chinese source of cobalt with these characteristics is known, but they closely match the elements found in the contemporary cobalt source at Erzgebirge in Germany. Textual evidence has been interpreted to suggest that some enamel pigment technologies were transferred from Europe to China, but this is the first analytical evidence to be found that an enamel pigment itself was imported. It is possible that this pigment was imported in the form of cobalt coloured glass, or smalt, which might account for its use in enamels, but not in an underglaze, where the colour might be susceptible to running. Furthermore, the European cobalt would have given a purer shade of blue than the manganese-rich Chinese cobalt.

Morgan and Dr Marian Morgan of Melbourne, Australia, were shipwrecked off the southernmost tip of New Zealand in 1929 losing everything when their boat foundered (except, by family legend, a pair of corsets and an elaborate hat). On the overland journey to catch another boat home they came across an antique shop, with an unusual stock of porcelain. That day they bought their first piece of Chelsea. They began collecting Oriental bronzes and jades in the 1930s – the heady days of the sale of the dispersal of the Eumorfopoulos Collections at Bluett & Sons. On moving to England in the 1950s and joining the English Ceramic Circle in 1951, their collecting of English porcelain gathered pace. Nigel, my husband, as the child of older parents, was taken around museums and galleries and began a life-long love of ceramics. As a small boy he met dealers such as Winifred Williams, whose son Bob was, in turn, a great mentor to us.

Box 26773, San Francisco, CA 94126 www.patricianantiques.com/sfcc.html SFCC FEBRUARY LECTURE A Glittering Occasion: Reflections on Dining in the 18th Century Sunday, FEBRUARY 25, 2017 9:45 a.m., doors open for social time Dr. Christopher Maxwell 10:30 a.m., program begins Curator of European Glass Gunn Theater, Legion of Honor Corning Museum of Glass About the lecture: One week later than usual, in conjunction with the Casanova exhibition at the Legion of Honor, the lecture will discuss the design and function of 18th-century tableware. It will address the shift of formal dining from daylight hours to artificially lit darkness. That change affected the design of table articles, and the relationship between ceramics and other media. About the speaker: Dr. Christopher L. Maxwell worked on the redevelopment of the ceramics and glass galleries at the Victoria and Albert Museum, with a special focus on 18th-century French porcelain. He also wrote the V&A’s handbook Eighteenth-Century French Porcelain (V&A Publications, 2010). From 2010 to 2016 he worked with 18th-century decorative arts at the Royal Collections. He has been Curator of European Glass at the Corning Museum of Glass since 2016. Dr. Maxwell is developing an exhibition proposal on the experience of light and reflectivity in 18th-century European social life. This month, our Facebook page will show 18th-century table settings and dinnerware.
