BOTELLA

Bottle. Culture: British, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. Designer: Design attributed to Christopher Dresser (British, Glasgow, Scotland 1834-1904 Mulhouse). Dimensions: Height: 7 5/8 in. (19.4 cm). Factory: Minton(s) (British, Stoke-on-Trent, 1793-present). Date: ca. 1862. The central pattern of scrolling interlaced foliage in orange edged in gold on a white ground harkens back to Islamic decorative motifs frequently found on ceramics. The vertical designs on the neck and under the bowl of the bottle are in imitation of fluting and gadrooning frequently found on silver hollowware. The bulbous shape of the vase, with a tall, narrow neck, takes its inspiration from Persian and Chinese examples. Attributed to Christopher Dresser (1834-1904), the vase's decorative scheme follows his idea that "the ornament must tend to emphasise [sic] the beautiful quality of the object and not destroy the form." By the early 1860s, Dresser was working for the Minton factory as a freelance designer and his early work for the company was often inspired by Persian examples. Some of these designs were presented in Minton's display at the International Exhibition, London (1862). The stylized geometric motifs recalling Middle Eastern sources, as well as the overall organization of ornament on the vase, are in accord with Dresser's theories on good design as espoused in his Principles of Decorative Design (1873), which echoed the ideas of Owen Jones. Both believed that when an object found in nature is used as a decorative motif ,it should be depicted conventionally, or flattened, rather than in imitation of the model. Dresser also admired the abstraction and intricacy of interlaced patterns associated with Persian ornament.

BOTELLA
Descripción:
Traducción automática: Botella. Cultura: británica, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. Diseñador: Diseño atribuido a Christopher Dresser (británico, Glasgow, Escocia 1834-1904 Mulhouse). Dimensiones: Altura: 7 5/8 pulgadas (19,4 cm). Fábrica: Minton(s) (británica, Stoke-on-Trent, 1793-presente). Fecha: ca. 1862. El patrón central de follaje entrelazado en espiral en naranja con bordes dorados sobre un fondo blanco recuerda a los motivos decorativos islámicos que se encuentran con frecuencia en la cerámica. Los diseños verticales en el cuello y debajo del cuenco de la botella imitan los estriados y gallones que se encuentran con frecuencia en la vajilla hueca de plata. La forma bulbosa del jarrón, con un cuello alto y estrecho, se inspira en ejemplos persas y chinos. Atribuido a Christopher Dresser (1834-1904), el esquema decorativo del jarrón sigue su idea de que "el ornamento debe tender a enfatizar [sic] la bella calidad del objeto y no destruir la forma". A principios de la década de 1860, Dresser trabajaba para la fábrica Minton como diseñador independiente y sus primeros trabajos para la empresa a menudo se inspiraban en ejemplos persas. Algunos de estos diseños se presentaron en la exposición de Minton en la Exposición Internacional de Londres (1862). Los motivos geométricos estilizados que recuerdan a las fuentes de Oriente Medio, así como la organización general del ornamento en el jarrón, están de acuerdo con las teorías de Dresser sobre el buen diseño, tal como se expone en su obra Principles of Decorative Design (1873), que se hace eco de las ideas de Owen Jones. Ambos creían que cuando un objeto encontrado en la naturaleza se utiliza como motivo decorativo, debe representarse de forma convencional, o aplanado, en lugar de imitar el modelo. Dresser también admiraba la abstracción y la complejidad de los patrones entrelazados asociados con el ornamento persa.
