Pair Antique French Porcelain Urns Chelsea Gold Anchor Mark Bird Floral Gilding Details Pair Antique Samson French Porcelain Urns Chelsea Gold Anchor Mark Bird Floral Hand Painted Very colorful pair and ornate gilding, pineapple shaped finial on top 13.5" tall x 7" wide including handles Gold anchor mark period (1756-1769) In this period, Chelsea Porcelain mainly followed the style of the French Sevres company. The gold anchor mark is the most forged Chelsea mark. As gold could not take the high temperatures in the kiln, the mark had to be applied on top of the glaze, which was a perfect mark for forgers as they did not have to mess around with the glaze. The influence of Sevres was very strong and French taste was in the ascendancy. The gold anchor period saw rich coloured grounds, lavish gilding and the nervous energy of the Rococo style.
