Magnifique ravissant service  cabaret  porcelaine Vienne "Haas & Czjzek in Schlaggenwald  1450 35" fin 19ème siècle 

Apparu dans le courant du XVIIIe siècle avec l'évolution des modes de vie et des pratiques de consommation, le cabaret, mot désignant à l'origine un plateau de service, est un ensemble d'objets présentés sur plateau et destinés à la prise de boissons chaudes par une ou plusieurs personnes. On employait aussi le terme « déjeuner », puisque le cabaret était utilisé généralement pour le repas léger que les classes sociales supérieures prenaient en cours de matinée et jusqu'au début de l'après-midi.

Après la simple boisson ingérée au saut du lit (bouillon, infusion, vin...), le déjeuner tardif rompait véritablement le jeûne de la nuit et permettait d'attendre le seul repas consistant de la journée, le souper du soir. Composé, selon les goûts de chacun, de café, lait, chocolat, thé, produits de boulangerie tels que petits pains, flûtes, pain brioché, rôties, le déjeuner pouvait aussi comporter un aliment salé tel que l'œuf à la coque, un anchois confit sur une tartine

History: The history of the factory dates back to 1792 when JohannGeorg Paulus initiated its founding and in the next year, along with partnersJ. Pöschl and J. Reumann, began operations. After several years of unsuccessfulattempts to produce porcelain, they decided to sell the factory. The factorywas bought in 1800 by Luise Sophie Greiner, but her attempt also turned out tobe unsuccessful. The turning point was the arrival of her son Johann GeorgLippert, a surgeon from Slavkov, along with Wenzel Haas. Since 1808 the companyhas been known as Lippert & Haas. By 1819 the company already had arepresentative office in Vienna (later also in Prague, Brno and Budapest) andin 1831 C. K. Ministry of the Treasury in Vienna said that the products ofSchlaggenwald exceeded the quality of Vienna products. The company wasappointed as the official supplier of porcelain in 1812 to Emperor Francis I ofAustria and his daughter Marie Louise. August Haas died in 1867 and his heirwas his son, Georg Haas, who accepted as a partner Johann Cžjžek and thefactory was branded with the name of Haas & Cžjžek. After buying a factoryin Chodov (Chodau), the company then employed a total of over 1000. In 1908, onthe day of the 60th birthday of Emperor Franz Joseph I, title of nobility weregranted to Georg Baron Haas von Hassenfeld and J.B. Cžjžek Adler von Smidaich(www.porcelainzone.com/en/factories/haas-czjzek-schlaggenwald). Royal Vienna isthe generic name given to items made in a particular decorative stylereminiscent of Renaissance paintings and sculptures. Strong elements of GreekClassicism are almost always present and the colour palette seems to bedominated by soft hues and romantic vibrancy. Gilding and elaborate borderdesigns, and sometimes even Ormolu or Metal Mounts, were frequent decorativedetails that enhanced the superb painting and colours on Royal Vienna antiques.Almost all Royal Vienna porcelain was meant primarily for display andadoration, with the notable exception of some super-fine chinaware that mostlikely is used quite rarely and on very auspicious occasions. The original andauthentic Imperial & Royal Vienna "beehive mark" on porcelain isnever symmetrical and is always under-glazed in blue or impressed, with veryfew exceptions. However, the most common beehive mark used on items in the samestyle, but made ca 19th century and onwards. The vast majority and most desiredRoyal Vienna porcelain items are those made from the 1870s to the 1930s. Thisperiod witnessed the peak of their production by hundreds of companies &porcelain studios. ***Notice, please, that each computer monitor is differentand the real colors may slightly vary*** ****The item will be carefully packedand sent with a tracking number *** ♥ Feel free to contact me and ask anyquestion(s) about this item!♥
