Antique Lamps – In Style Casserole
Before the development of modern sanitation etc., hygiene has been misunderstood and certainly received very little attention. The air was full of "smells" of a multitude of sources and one of the most interesting descriptions comes from the indefatigable diarist, Samuel Pepys.
He speaks of his childhood in the late 17th century London, London under a cloud of smoke constant soot from open fires, brewers and dyers, soap makers and boilers salt, smoke from their chimneys covering everything with dirt soot.
It saves the "wall hangings, pictures and clothing became yellow and brown like leaves in autumn" and "winter under vests, sewn to the season against the cold, have the color of mud in the spring time has arrived "!
John Evelyn, diarist that other large, contemporary of Samuel Pepys, has also made a special note in his diary in August 1653 wrote that "it would try a hair washing annual "!
Throughout history and certainly in the early 20th century, bad smells have a real problem in each house, as there was usually a large family, apprentices, girls and animals all contribute, plus kitchen and laundry, kept for the washing per month! Not to mention the chamber pots, which were emptied in the yard or the street!
By the mid 18th century efforts were made to address this widespread problem, although more than one household level rather than on the level of public works. We must remind ourselves that the company was highly classified and that was the end of high society who are innovative, simply because they could afford.
However, it was the French style, who designed an elegant, ie the ninth century, the solution, the pan, simply described as a vase with a perforated cover to emit perfumes. But, of course, anything designed for the rich, 18th century house has never been simple.
A very pretty pair of early 20th century, French, regency lamps emphasis casserole. The censers (incense burners at the origin), supported on fine bronze tripods, the legs, with cloven feet, capitals ending classic head. The tripod stands on polished, assembled on site, the foundations of cream marble. The censers and bases squares polished cream marble, marble with iron red inclusions.
This is a classic pair of main emphasis cassolette
retain all the elegance of this form,
virtually unchanged for three hundred years, as used in Europe.
The origins of this style, however,
back to Classical Greece, circa 500 BC
About 1910 Height everything (including shade) 15 "/ 38cm
Hesston Lady gives us a glimpse in a memo addressed to Matthew Boulton One of the greatest English designers of the 18th century. She had lent her perfume burners Boulton, casseroles or as a model, from which he designed his examples. After a moment, she pushed them back, explaining, "my friends reproach me that I do enjoy their nose with smells fine after their fun palate with soup and stews. It was the custom for incense burners from entering the dessert and hunt the smell of dinner.
At that time, were censers burners, which were lit and slowly burned to produce a beautiful scent. Many and varied have been "recipes" for pasta burned in them. For example: – a basic charcoal fine with equal parts of grain musk, ambergris, seeds of vanilla, essence of rose and iris powder, gum acacia with enough work all together into a paste.
As 18th century moved through the 19th century, improved conditions for the development of sanitation and electricity.
In the early 20th century the pan had lost its original function, but has been retained, no doubt his style Formally, finally appears as a stylish lamp.
