Pair of goblets; Sèvres, late 19th century. Porcelain and bronze. Signed Feccalti. With felling loss (x2). Measurements: 24 x 13 cm (x2). Pair of Sevres goblets polychrome with the characteristic cobalt blue or "bleu du roi". Both pieces present the characteristic medallions located in the centre of each one of the vases presided over by two ladies and a little love that accompanies them. One of the young women holds a lyre in her hands, while the other holds a flute, which identifies them as the muses of music. Both are set in bucolic landscapes of rococo taste. The polished bronze appliqués are richly classicist in character, particularly the classical face on each of the handles, in the Sèvres style. The prestigious French manufacture, Sèvres, was founded in the 18th century, although it was not until the early 19th century that pictorial decoration with gold began to be applied to Sèvres products, a period when the manufacture reached a high level of refinement.
