Tureen and stand

Manufactory Vienna
Factory director Claudius Innocentius Du Paquier period Austrian

Not on view

Du Paquier produced a number of services decorated with animal or hunting scenes painted in black enamel in the style of a print or monochrome drawing. All these so-called hunting services were also embellished with black ornamental borders highlighted with gold. This type of decoration, known as Schwarzlot, was one of the manufactory’s most distinctive styles. While certain services can be distinguished by the design of the border, it is not clear to which service this tureen and stand, with its somewhat stiff and naive painting, belonged.
