Pair Of Louis XV Style Porcelain Fruit Coolers

Interesting pair of porcelain fruit coolers from Maison Rouard in Paris in Louis XV style.
this pair of coolers is directly inspired by porcelain from the Louis XV period in the 18th century.
the decor and shape are skilfully copied and recall the work of the Sèvres factory.
a superb decor of garlands of flowers and golden cartridges in which multicolored birds fly.
the gilding highlighting the fretwork is in very good condition despite some minor flaws on the points of use.
the colors are beautiful and the birds stand out against the creamy white background.
the winding sockets ending in acanthus leaves are in very good condition and highlighted in gold.
no restoration to report.
this type of fruit coolers are luxurious testimonies of tableware in the 18th century and remain quite rare on the market, as are the coolers intended for presenting ice creams and sorbets.
they are signed Rouard in Paris below.
one of them is marked with minor reddish traces on the inside, having probably served as a cache-pot at one time.
very fine examples of the luxury of tableware in the 18th century.
