Odiot's design for this ewer was illustrated in the Scientific American Supplement, Vol. XII, No. 299, 24 September 1881.
The ciseleur Paul Diomède (1833-1913), was entrusted by Odiot for the execution of this ewer. Diomède, born in Sauxillanges, studied the art of tooling and chasing bronzes under the direction of M. Fanie. As a mature ciseleur he worked under Odiot, perhaps most notably on the 1867 Pétin Surtout de Table, sold Sotheby’s New York, 23 May 2012, lot 73. Diomède continued to collaborate with Odiot throughout his career, achieving a silver medal and a diploma at the Expositions Universelles de Paris also achieving a bronze for his own work. He exhibited in both the 1878 and 1889 expositions.
