Imperial Privilege: Vienna Porcelain of Du Paquier, 1718-44:Du Paquier potters clearly were familiar with Chinese teawares, as they imitated and adapted their forms. Here, both the four-cornered shape and the arched sections of the foot were copied from Chinese models. The brown ground, also Chinese in origin, is a rare example of the use of a ground color at Du Paquier; inside the cartouches are chinoiserie scenes in the Meissen style of Johann Gregorious Höroldt (1696–1775).
Karl Mayer (until 1928; sale, Auktionshaus für Altertümer, Vienna, November 19, 1928, no. 38); Heinrich and Lisa Arnhold ; [ E. Pinkus , New York, before 1954]
