{"product_id":"sevres-style-cobalt-porcelain-decorative-wall-plate-gilt-brass-floral-frame","title":"Sèvres-Style Cobalt Porcelain Decorative Wall Plate with Gilt Brass Floral Frame","description":"\u003ch2\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Inspiration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCertain objects announce their heritage the moment they enter a room. This decorative wall plate — faithfully reproduced in the tradition of the great Sèvres manufactory — carries the visual authority of eighteenth-century French court taste. The deep cobalt ground, scrolling gilt acanthus tendrils, and central bouquet of roses, tulips, and anemones are rendered with the precision of a miniature painting, set within a cast gilt brass frame crowned by a ribbon-and-bow crest and anchored below by a rose garland mount. Together they form not a plate, but a wall jewel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe porcelain body draws directly from the visual language of Sèvres bleu de roi — the intense, saturated cobalt that became the signature ground colour of Louis XVI's royal manufactory in the 1770s. Against this ground, gilded scrollwork arabesques and a fan-shell cartouche at the crown are applied with the controlled hand of a trained decorator. The central medallion is painted with a loose, naturalistic bouquet in the Dutch floral tradition favoured at Sèvres: roses, peonies, tulips, daffodils, and wild flowers tumbling together with studied informality. The surrounding gilt brass frame is cast and hand-chased — the bow finial at the top is a three-dimensional sculptural element, not a stamped ornament, and the lower garland mount carries individually modelled rose and leaf forms. The brass finish is applied to achieve the warm, saturated gilt tone characteristic of French ormolu.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeight: 4 kg. The plate is sized for a prominent wall position — a focal point above a console, between two sconces, or centred on a salon wall. The decorative brass frame adds visual mass and projects the piece forward from the surface, giving it the dimensional presence of a framed work of art rather than a flat object.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandcrafted in Egypt\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery plate in this series is produced in Egypt by Brass \u0026amp; Wood craftsmen working in the European classical tradition. The porcelain is hand-decorated and the brass frame is individually cast, chased, and finished. No two pieces are identical — variation in the painted bouquet and in the gilt tone are marks of authentic hand production, not defects. Customisation of brass finish is available on request.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat materials is this plate made from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate body is porcelain with hand-applied cobalt glaze and gilt decoration.
