10384 - Early 19th Century Pair of Paris Porcelain Jardiniere or Cahé PotItem Categories: Porcelain, Glassware and Silver
Item DescriptionEarly 19th Century pair of Paris porcelain jardiniere or cahé pot. In the classic Regency style, elegant white porcelain with refined gilding and monogrammed LV. Jardinieres, ornamental holders in which exotic potted plants were displayed were introduced during the Regency era. Contemporary taste decreed that plants grown indoors had to be housed in attractive containers to harmonize with the rest of the room. These were known as jardinieres, from the French word for garden. Strictly speaking, jardinieres should have a drainage hole so plants can be potted directly into them. An indoor plant-holder with no drainage hole is more correctly called by another French word, cache-pot (pot-hider), though the word jardiniere is loosely used today for both types.
