A rare Doccia armorial beaker with the arms of Cardinal Giovanni Francesco Stoppani, circa 1753The front painted with the arms beneath the cardinal's galero, the reverse with a finely painted flower spray flanked by insects, gilt-edged rims, 8cm high (short hair crack and two small flat chips to rim)Footnotes:Cardinal Giovanni Francesco Stoppani (1695-1774) was born to a noble Milanese family, ordained as a priest in 1734, was Apostolic Nuncio in Tuscany from 1735 to 1739, and subsequently in Venice and the Holy Roman Emperor and the Diet of Frankfurt in 1745. He was appointed Cardinal by Pope Benedict XIV in the consistory of 26 November 1753.Prseumably while serving as Apostolic Nuncio in Tuscany, Stoppani became a friend of the founder of the Doccia factory, Marchese Carlo Ginori. In a letter of 1752, Stoppani thanked Ginori for a gift of some 'very fine' porcelain and reminded him that he has sent a drawing of his family's coat-of-arms, presumably for the planned armorial service. A letter dated 1 December 1753 records the delivery of the service, shortly after Stoppani's appointment as Cardinal: 'On Wednesday morning the news of the promotion having reached here, I give myself the honour of relaying to Your Excellency that having left for Urbino, I took advantage of the opportunity to present my compliments to Cardinal Stoppani and to present him with the case which was graciously consigned to me, he was extremely grateful for the magnificent porcelain service contained therein...'

GIO PONTI (ITALIAN 1891-1979) FOR RICHARD GINORI MONUMENTAL ANGELO VASE AND COVER, CIRCA 1930 designed 1925-26, stamped 'Richard Ginori / 30-4', porcelain(60cm high, 31.5cm wide (23 1/2in high, 12 1/2in wide))Footnote: Provenance: A Private European Collection of Design Literature: U. La Pietra, Gio Ponti, New York, 2009, p. 26 (for related designs); G. Celanti, Espressioni di Gio Ponti, exh. cat. Triennale Milan, 2011, p. 20, fig. 10 (for related designs); L. Frescobaldi Malenchini, O. Ruccellai, Gio Ponti e Richard Ginori, exh. cat. Triennale Milan, 2015, pp. 65, 99 and 101 (for related design). Gio Ponti was appointed artistic director of Richard Ginori from 1923 to 1930. Richard Ginori was formed in 1896 after the Ginori family business dating back to 1735 - with a factory located in Doccia near Florence - was assimilated by the Società Ceramica Richard of Milan. Ponti’s role was to overhaul the business, which he did by introducing mass-production, but without sacrificing quality, and by creating new ranges. At the heart of his business was the belief in the relationship between art and industry and a desire to reinvigorate the Italian nation through great design. Inspiration came from the rich Italian heritage and was transposed into a modern aesthetic idiom that was graphic in manner using lines and varied tonality. The forms of his pieces were simple, and he kept the surfaces smooth and clean, though on occasion introduced some decorative features in relief. Decorative motifs were drawn from a wide range of sources including the ancient world and architecture that nurtured a strong sense of national identity. The designs have much in common with French Art Deco too in their use of stylised motifs for example in the figure of Il Pellegrino (The Pilgrim). Ponti exhibited at the Paris Exposition Universelle des Arts Décoratifs of 1925 and in fact won a Grand Prix for his designs for Richard Ginori. This was the exhibition which gave rise to the name Art Deco as a style. The angel on surmounting the cover was designed for the wedding anniversary of Ugo and Fernanda Ojetti in 1926 but was then re-introduced on Il Trionfo dell-Amore della Morte a piece designed by Ponti and exhibited at the IV Triennale in Monza, 1930. A similar example of the vase was designed by Ponti in 1925 and then produced by Richard Ginori in 1929, but the cover featured two dancing figures.

After the Antique: A Bronze Figure of a Dancing Faun, on a canted square base and marble plinth, 39cm high See illustration The Dancing Faun is a Hellenistic marble first recorded in 1665, when Albert Rubens listed it as in the collection of the Grand Duke of Tuscany, though having been restored in the 16th century it is likely to have been in their possession for some time. By 1688 the sculpture was in the Tribuna of the Uffizi and there gained the reputation as one of the finest ancient sculptures in existence. The model became popular with Grand Tourists and versions were produced by Massimiliano Soldani-Benzi (1656-1714) and Pietro Cipriani (circa 1680-before 1745) as well as porcelain examples made at the nearby Doccia factory. Its popularity continued throughout the 19th century and continues today. . Some typical minor wear and scratching.

At his marriage on 15 August 1741, he was described in the register as 'Jakob Felchis, porcelain painter, widower, born in Triest, resident in the porcelain manufactory' (C. Lehner-Jobst, History of the First Vienna Porcelain Manufactory, in Chilton/Lehner-Jobst, vol. 1, p. 212). He was subsequently in Munich, where - between 1747 and 1750 - he was involved in the early attempts to produce porcelain at the nascent Neudeck (later Nymphenburg) manufactory (F.H. Hofmann, Geschichte der Porzellanmanufaktur Nymphenburg, II (1922), p. 337).The closely similar silver-mounted ecuelle and cover, also signed on the cover by Jacob Helchis but lacking a stand, is in the British Museum (Sir A.W. Franks Collection, inv. no. 163; published by Chilton/Lehner-Jobst, no. 329). Both the Franks example and the present lot were in the collections of C.W. Reynolds (mostly sold at Christie's in 1871, the remainder in 1874) and, subsequently, James Sanders.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
