À propos de cet article

Wedgwood Majolica Fan Strawberry Set, Argenta, with a storied heritage and provenance, owned by Legendary Fashion Icon André Leon Talley! This plate is adorned in a Fan pattern with cherry blossoms and butterfly motifs; inspired by the widespread interest in Japanese styles and aesthetics after the International Exhibitions of that time. This is in the Argenta style which refers to a softer color palette on an ivory ground and was popularized by Wedgwood in the 1870s. It was a shift from the typically bright hughes of Victorian ceramic wares and was a response to the ever changing tastes of the time where the deeper colors of earlier Majolica were starting to fall out of style. On the plate reverse, it’s marked with pattern# M2756 and impressed with “UPG” indicating the production date of 1878. The Fan pattern was introduced around 1878 and Wedgwood created approximately 90 styles/entries. Also included on its reverse is an impressed Diamond Registration mark which was part of the English pattern registration system that was in effect from 1842-1883. This registration mark was a degree of “copyright protection” to the designer of the piece and many companies took advantage of this system to protect their more original designs. André Leon Talley (1948-2022) was one of the fashion world's first African-American Tastemakers. A towering 6’-6” tall, elegant, flamboyant, fashion icon and celebrity with impeccable style, known for his signature capes and kaftans. For six decades he was an integral part of fashion's history, as a journalist, author, stylist, creative director and editor-at-large. His career started in 1974, when he apprenticed with legendary fashion editor Diana Vreeland at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute. They created magic, on and off stage, sharing an extraordinary life of fashion and friendship. After the MET, he worked at Andy Warhol’s Factory, through Vreeland’s introduction. He was hired to answer the phone, which opened the door to New York City’s most glamorous socialites. Although private, he was part of Studio 54’s glamours scene in the 70s, disco dancing with models, fashion designers, artists, and celebrities. After Warhol’s Factory, at the young age of 27 he went to Paris to run Women’s Wear Daily, he also wrote for a few other publications prior to Vogue Magazine. He was Vogue's first African-American Creative Director, then Editor-at-Large. He broke boundaries in an industry dominated by white women. He was a prominent diversity advocate for Vogue, on and off the runway, supporting emerging designers and models. He had style, good taste and southern charm, spoke French eloquently and loved his church, a very soulful person with a big heart. Raised in the (then) segregated deep south, by his strict, loving grandmother - who worked as a maid at Duke University. Going to church was the most important thing in their life. André’s childhood was wonderful and complex, despite impoverished beginnings, he earned a bachelor’s degree from North Carolina Central University and a master’s degree from Brown (both) in French Literature. From there, he went to New York, for a volunteer internship at the Costume Institute, where he apprenticed under Diana Vreeland. He met fashion icon Diane von Furstenberg early on while he was still interning at the MET. They became and stayed very, very good friends, like family until his death. When he was about to lose everything to pay debts, including being thrown out of his colonial home on 75 Worthington Road, White Plains, New York - Furstenberg lovingly, graciously took care of the situation for him. Almost immediately after that, he died in the hospital while under treatment for COVID. Ironically, less than a year later, the street on which he lived for eighteen years, the one he was nearly thrown out of - was renamed to "André Leon Talley Way" in his honor!

Wedgwood

Sans doute le plus célèbre de tous les fabricants de céramiques anglaises, Wedgwood a été fondé en 1759 par le potier Josiah Wedgwood (1730-95) dans Staffordshire, qui abritait à l'époque des centaines d'ateliers de poterie. La société est célèbre pour ses Jasperware - moulés néoclassiques grès vases, assiettes et autres pièces inspirées de l'ancien verre camée, présentant des figures blanches, des scènes et des éléments décoratifs en relief sur un fond de couleur mate. La teinte de fond la plus connue est le bleu clair, mais les silhouettes emblématiques de Wedgwood apparaissent également sur des fonds verts, lilas, jaunes, noirs et même blancs. Certaines pièces anciennes de la vaisselle Wedgwood et d'autres présentent trois couleurs ou plus.

La société Wedgwood s'est d'abord fait connaître par sa vaisselle , qui a rapidement gagné la faveur des ménages aristocratiques à travers la Grande-Bretagne et l'Europe. En 1765, Wedgwood a été chargé de créer un service en faïence de couleur crème pour la reine Charlotte, épouse du roi George III . La reine était tellement ravie de sa nouvelle porcelaine que Wedgwood a reçu l'autorisation de s'appeler "Potter to Her Majesty" (potier de Sa Majesté) et le style décoratif est devenu connu sous le nom de Queen's Ware (vaisselle de la Reine).

Pour ne pas être en reste, Catherine la Grande de Russie a commandé son propre service de porcelaine Wedgwood en 1773. Près de 200 ans plus tard, l'entreprise a créé un service de 1 200 pièces pour le couronnement de Queen Elizabeth II. Ces dernières années, des designers de premier plan tels que Jasper Conran et Vera Wang ont collaboré avec Wedgwood, dans la tradition d'artistes éminents du XVIIIe siècle tels que le peintre George Stubbs et le ferronnier d'art Matthew Boulton.

Des assiettes et autres articles de vaisselle aux objets décoratifs tels que urnes, cachepots et chandeliers, les créations de Wedgwood confèrent un air traditionnel aux intérieurs anglophiles. Et même si vous avez pour préparer votre propre thé, vous trouverez peut-être réconfortant de le siroter dans une tasse délicate fabriquée dans le même four de Stoke-on-Trent qui a produit le service à thé de Sa Majesté. Veillez à ce que votre petit doigt soit levé.
