Definition von chantilly porcelain im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch
Either of two types of soft-paste porcelain produced from 1725 to 1800 at Chantilly, France. In the first type, made until 1750, an opaque, milk-white tin glaze was applied to a yellowish ground; the designs were simplified Japanese patterns. In the second type ( 1750-1800), a traditional transparent lead glaze was applied over a coloured ground; the designs were influenced by Meissen and Sèvres porcelain. Production consisted primarily of domestic ware (plates, basins, jugs) with painted decoration in a limited palette. The motifs were often small flower bouquets, known as Chantilly sprigs, or scrolls and plaits
