Blaumarke Zepter, emailblauer Überstrich, goldener Punkt, Pressnummer, geritzt III. Fond retuschiert. D 23,8 cm.Berlin, KPM, um 1806/07.Das Vorbild dieses botanischen Tellers sind die Dessertteller aus dem Service für die französische Kaiserin Joséphine. Die gesamte Order für "Sa Majesté l´Impératrice" umfasste 72 Dessertteller, jeder bemalt mit einer natürlichen Blume nach einer grafischen Vorlage in bester Manufakturqualität. Um die Fahne winden sich hingegen Arabesken, antikische goldpolierte Ornamenten im unendlichen Rapport. Auf der Unterseite der Teller befindet sich in schwarzer Schreibschrift der botanische Name der Pflanze. Samuel Wittwer schreibt im Katalog zur Sammlung Richard B. Cohen, dass "In einem Buch, das sämtliche zwischen 1813 und 1820 von den Malerwerkstätten an das Hauptwarenlager zum öffentlichen Verkauf fertig abgelieferten Geschirrteile auflistet, (...) mehrfach Teller genannt (werden), deren Beschreibung dem Typus der Exemplare für die französische Kaiserin entsprechen." (S. 257). Ganz offensichtlich ist der Typus der botanischen Dekoration danach in Mode gekommen - wie viele andere Moden, die die französische Kaiserin inspirierte - und wurde für zahlreiche weitere Besteller in ähnlicher Qualität und Form nachproduziert.ProvenienzSammlung Renate und Tono Dreßen.LiteraturZu Bestellung und Umfang des Service für Joséphine s.

D 23.8 cm.C. 1806/07.This botanical plate was inspired by the dessert plates from the service produced for the French Empress Joséphine. The order for “Sa Majesté l´Impératrice” encompassed 72 dessert plates in total, each painted with a naturalistically rendered flower after a botanical engraving in the finest quality that the manufactory had to offer. The borders were entwined with arabesques and polished gold Neoclassical ornaments. The undersides of the plates were each labelled with the botanical names of the plants depicted. In his catalogue describing the collection of Richard B. Cohen, Samuel Wittwer wrote of “a book listing all items of porcelain sent by the painting studio to the main warehouse for public sale between the years 1813 and 1820, (in which) several plates with a description fitting those produced for the French Empress were included.” (p. 257). It was obvious that this style of botanical décor had become fashionable – one of many modes inspired by the French Empress – and it was used for numerous other commissions of a similar form and quality.ProvenanceCollection of Renate and Tono Dreßen.LiteratureFor more on the service produced for Empress Joséphine see cat.

She became a botanical artist, listed as living in Bishopsgate Street. Exhibited at Royal Academy, 1786-87. LiteratureAn article written by W. Roberts appeared in The Gardeners' Chronicle, 5th June 1920, entitled 'A Forgotten Botanical Artist: Miss Crabtree'.Roberts describes the exciting discovery of a folio of watercolours by the artist.'Hodgson sold a consignment of portfolios or albums from Sussex, which included many beautiful drawings of flowers on vellum by Philippa Crabtree'...'All the more important drawings of flowers were purchased by Mr Francis Edwards of High Street, Marylebone, who kindly permitted me to take full notes.''The earliest dated drawing by Phillipa Crabtree I have found is one, 1784, of Narcissus Tazetta, which helps us to realise from what an indifferent type many wonderful varieties have been developed. Common garden flowers such as Sweet Peas, Pinks, double Daisies, and so forth appear among Miss Crabtree's earlier work. In 1786 she extended her scope and was able to paint many exotic plants, possibly in Curtis's London Botanic Gardens, in St. George's Fields, within easy walk of Bishopsgate Street, and to which the subscription was a guinea a year. The drawings of Geranium (Pelargonium) lanceolatum is dated 1786, about 11 years after it was introduced; in the same year also appears a British plant, Melittis Melissophyllum, and Ipomaea Quamoclit, which some years later was figures in the Botanical Magazine'. He describes 'the undated ones include many interesting examples, such for instance as various Rhododendrons, Passifloras, Roses and various bulbous plants. Occasionally two subjects are done on a page.'Roberts goes into great detail explaining the importance of these pictures and states that it is possible that these are 'the first British drawings' of many species. 'It is a very obvious suggestion that these drawings, manifestly executed with the greatest care and with every effort to be accurate, were done for a specific purpose, and wonders if they may not have been reproduced in some of the botanical or horticultural books of the period, with the artist's name suppressed and till now forgotten.'A group of watercolours by Philippa Crabtree were sold at Sotheby's London in November 1965.An example of her work, depicting a Passion Flower, was sold at Christies, London, 19th May 1998, Books and Watercolours, Lot 16, hammer price £2,300.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

POLISHED COCO DE MER SEED (Lodoicea maldivica), of typical form, 24cms high Provenance: private collection, consigned via our Carmarthen office Auctioneers note: The coco de mer is a palm found only in the islands of Praslin and Curieuse in the Seychelles. The fruit requires around seven years to mature and a further two years to germinate. Originally believed to have been a sea-bean or drift seed (a seed designed to be dispersed by the sea) it is now known that the nut is too heavy to float, and that only rotten nuts can be found on the sea surface: this explains why the trees are limited in range to just two islands. Until the true source of the nut was discovered in 1768, many believed that it grew on a mythical tree at the bottom of the sea. In the 16th century, the European aristocracy decorated their coco de mer seeds with precious jewels, and treasured them in "cabinets of curiosities". The sailors who first saw the nut floating in the sea imagined that they resembled a woman's buttocks, leading to the plant's archaic botanical name, "Lodoicea callipyge"; "callipyge" meaning "beautiful rump" in Greek. Condition Report: cut and shut.The Coco de mer has been cut, contents removed and resealed. There is a clear cut line right around the shell.There is also one large blemish near the top.
