E427) PATE-SUR-PATE 1849-1992. Bumpus B.1992. 320 pages 150 black & white & 38 colour plates.d/w. Fine. The most charming and distinct porcelain decoration of the nineteenth century' is how pate-sur-pate was described by the ceramist Willaim Burton in 1902. Its cameo-like effect was achieved by applying successive layers of thin slip in delicate gradations and by fine carving with modelling-tools, finished off with a brush. The process, which was time consuming, was first tried at the Imperial manufactory of Sevres about 1849. Some examples were shown at the Great Exhibition in London in 1852 and quickly attracted attention.The technique remained a French monopoly until the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 when work at Sevres was brought to a stop, and one of the manufactory's best artists, Marc Louis Solon, came to England to work for Minton's. Includes informationm on smaller concerns and individual artists from Albert Dammouse, Limoge, Taxal Doat, C.H. Pillivuyt, George Jones, Villeroy & Boch, Rorstrand, Lois Rhead and many more. This is the first comprehensive survey of the technique of pate-sur-pate in Europe and America. It is recognised as the standard work on this subject throughout the World.
