Lot 17
A study group of a Capodimonte porcelain saucer and three Samson saucers, comprising: a Capodimonte saucer, c.1759-60, Buen Retiro, painted with flowering ‘Indian’ shrubs within a Meissen-style border of gilt scrollwork divided by diaper panels. 13.1cm diameter; the first Samson saucer probably late 19th century, red anchor mark, painted with a loose bouquet of flowers, 11.9cm diameter; the second Samson saucer probably late 19th century, with five red foliate panels around a central gilt circle, gilt line rim, 12.9cm diameter; the third Samson saucer probably late 19th century, red anchor mark, painted with five bouquets within a border of black scale ornament edged with gilt scrolls, 13cm diameter (4) Provenance: The first and second Samson saucers: Samson Porcelain Original Factory Models from the Showroom of Etablissement Edme Samson sale; Christie’s, London, 16 June 1980, lot 100 (part). Property of the late Hugo Morley-Fletcher MA FSA (1940-2022). Note: The extraordinary rendering of the flowers on the Capodimonte saucer, which owes its origins to Chinese famille rose porcelain and Japanese Kakiemon decoration, must be derived from a Meissen original as the gilt border is very similar to Meissen’s baroque laub und bandlewerk borders of the late 1720s and early 1730s. A teabowl and saucer with this decoration in Lokar Collection is illustrated by Andreina d’Agliano, Italian Porcelain in the Lokar Collection, Milan, 2013, pp. 222-223. Also see Angela Caròla Perotti, Le Porcellane dei Borbone di Napoli, 1986, pp. 60-61 and p. 70, no. 14.Condition Report: Capodimonte saucer: There is some chipping to the rim, mainly to the underside of the rim (the largest of these is 3mm x 9mm). There is some very slight wear to the flowers at the centre, but this is minor. An area of the reverse has a circular ground area (which may once have had a mark) – this would have been removed at the time of manufacture as the base bows out a little and it would have made the saucer unsteady when placed on a surface. This is also minor. Samson saucer with flowers: This appears to be in good condition with only two firing faults (which date from the time of manufacture) – an indentation at 7 o’clock and a brown speck at 12 o’clock – these are minor. Samson saucer (black scale border): This appears to be in good condition.
