    Pair of barbotine lamps by D.Grenet, with Japanese gilt-bronze mounts, circa 1880.
    An interesting and highly decorative pair of lamps dating from the second half of the 19th century, combining a fine enamelled barbotine, signed under the base D.G for Dominique Grenet (1821-1885) with a gilt bronze mounting with ornamentation derived from Japonism, resting on elephant heads in the taste of drawings by Edouard Lièvres (1829-1886).
    Dominique Grenet, born November 24, 1821 in Joigny, Yonne, and died June 28, 1885 in Gien, was a French painter who entered the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts in 1845, and exhibited at the Paris Salon the same year, winning medals for his work. Like many landscape painters, he came to the Fontainebleau region in Seine et Marne, and it seems he fell in love with Montigny sur Loing (Fontainebleau forest) very quickly on his first visit. From 1873 onwards, Dominique Grenet worked for the Schopin earthenware factory, quickly mastering the art of slip painting. He remained in Montigny sur Loing until 1876, when he moved to Gien in the Loiret to run the slip workshop. Jean Cachier, a former student of Schopin's, followed him, and they worked together to prepare the Gien exhibition for the 1878 World's Fair.
