FOR SALE : ORIGINAL 1850'S TILES FROM DESVRES FRANCE HAND PAINTED
ORIGINAL 1850's tiles from Desvres France hand painted with red, blue and green on a white tile.
Vernacular aesthetic style, geometrical forms and floral abstractions these tiles have an unique stile as were done with stencil differing a lot from those done using brushes for instance you can see there are rather the dash dot instead of solid lines.
TECHNIQUE: First, kneading, cutting and drying of the part, all handcrafted. Then, a first burn making the so called biscuit. While this was in process the enamel was prepared by mixing fusion, of tin oxide and lead oxide, sand, sea salt forming a solution. With this solution the tiles were bath, and naturally dried, once dry, a stencil usually of tin, with the design draft was placed on each piece and with a sponger or brush the cobalt oxide (to get blues) or manganese oxide ( to get violet ) was placed one by one on tiles. Finally the definitive burn and piece ended.
COLORS: White background and 1 or 2 colors. Cobalt blue and dark violet. But seldom yellow or green. The blue and violet slight dye the white background conferring the piece an unique characteristic.
