Lot Essay
The Sèvres archives record two Vase Boileau Diéterle gilded in 1879. In July and August of 1880, both are noted in the magazine registry: one as sent to the lottery of the clocks and watches trade chamber; the other as delivered to an unidentified French museum.
This form was created in 1855 by Jules-Pierre-Michel Diéterle, Director of Works of Arts, forms and decoration (1848-1855). Prior to his employment at Sèvres, Diéterle was trained as an architect, painter and decorator.
