Cane Handle (Poignée de canne)

미술관의 설명

With its ribbing and underglaze blue decoration in the form of draping blue garlands, this porcelain handle was likely among the first to have been produced at the Saint-Cloud Porcelain Factory. Though Saint-Cloud may have been the first to produce porcelain cane handles as fashionable accessories, their popularity meant that they were soon produced at a variety of other French factories during the first half of the 1700s. Canes, or sticks, were popular fashion accessories for aristocratic men, women, and children in 18th-century France.
