Full Lot Description

Works of Art from the Schroder Collection (lots 152-178 (Silver) and 272-331)

 

The Schroder family came to England from Hamburg in the late eighteenth century and became amongst the most successful of Europes merchant bankers. Johann Friedrich established a trading company in London around 1801 and was later joined by his brother, Johann Heinrich, who set up his own business in 1818, J. Henry Schroder & Co. He was succeeded by his son, Baron Sir John Henry (1825-1910), who acquired works of art on a grand scale. He displayed his extensive collection at The Dell, an old hunting lodge on the edge of Windsor Great Park. The works of art offered at Roseberys have passed down through the Schroder dynasty, mainly from Baron Bruno Schroder (1867-1940) (the nephew of Sir John Henry Schroder) and his grandson, the late Bruno Schroder (1933-2019).

 

A Paris (Locre) two-handled baluster Etruscan vase, c.1780-90, blue crossed torches mark, the waisted white-ground neck finely decorated with arabesques including flowers, vases, cornucopiae, husks and scrolls, below an apricot-ground border between moulded gilt bands, the apricot-ground central part painted with puce arabesques and centred by two moulded gilt paterae terminals issuing scrolling gilt foliage handles, the gold-ground lower part and socle with green-shaded simulated gadroons, the plinth foot painted to simulate marble, 39.9cm high

 

Provenance: Works of Art from the Schroder Collection.

A vase of a different form with related decoration is illustrated by Regine de Plinval de Gillebon, Faience et Porcelaine de Paris, XVIIIe XIXe Siecles, Dijon, 1995, p. 169, no. 159, where it is dated circa 1785-90.
