Armchair

c.1875-1876

Pottier and Stymus Manufacturing Company

This armchair, along with a matching side chair and cabinet, was made for Pottier and Stymus’ display at the 1876 Centennial International Exhibition in Philadelphia. This seminal event offered unprecedented exposure to potential patrons and sparked the nation’s preference for the Aesthetic style. Founding partner Auguste Pottier then donated the pieces to the Metropolitan Museum as examples of distinguished contemporary craftsmanship.

During the late 1870s and early 1880s, New York City emerged as the center for the production of luxury furniture, interior woodwork, and decoration. Companies including George A. Schastey & Co., Herter Brothers, Pottier and Stymus Manufacturing Company, and Herts Brothers flourished during this period of unparalleled financial growth. With showrooms and manufactories located in the city’s thriving commercial district at Union Square, they received commissions from wealthy financiers and railroad magnates in New York City and across the country for custom-made furnishings. These full-service firms depended on the skills of highly trained émigré craftsmen, many of whom had fled political strife and economic hardship in regions that compose modern-day France and Germany.

La Mode illustrée, no. 51, 23 décembre 1877, Paris. Toilettes de Madame Fladry, 43, rue Richer. Collection of the Rijksmuseum, Netherlands

Toilette d'intérieur. Robe princesse en tissu de laine jardinière nuance ardoise. La garniture se compose d'un large galon fond noir, bordé de plusieurs teintes pareilles aux couleurs du tissu de laine; ce galon est posé de façon à simuler sur le corsage une sorte de plastron, et sur la jupe un assez long paletot, et sur le bord inférieur des manches un haut revers. Sous le bord inférieur de la robe princess se trouve un volant plissé de même étoffe; au-dessus de ce volant, la jupe est quelque peu drapée sur le côté gauche sous un large nœud de ruban.

Toilette de visites. Le devant de la robe, depuis le cou jusqu'aux pieds, est fait en satin olive. Le corsage est plat, les devants sont légèrement bouillonnés. La grande polonaise, ouverte sur le devant de satin, est faite en velours ciselé olive et nuance paon; le devant des manches est en ce même velours, et leur dessous en satin. Un biais de satin olive borde tous les contours de la polonaise. Sous la polonaise, fendue sur les côtés, se trouve un faux jupon couvert de satin, lequel apparaît entre les fentes.

—

Indoor ensemble. Princess dress in slate shade garden wool fabric. The trim consists of a large black braid, bordered with several shades similar to the colors of the wool fabric; this braid is placed in such a way as to simulate a sort of plastron on the bodice, and on the skirt a fairly long overcoat, and on the lower edge of the sleeves a high lapel. Under the lower edge of the princess dress is a pleated flounce of the same fabric; above this flounce, the skirt is somewhat draped on the left side under a large ribbon bow.

Visiting ensemble. The front of the dress, from the neck down, is made of olive satin. The bodice is flat, the fronts are slightly bubbled. The large polonaise, open on the satin front, is made in olive and peacock shade chiseled velvet; the front of the sleeves is in this same velvet, and their underside in satin. A bias of olive satin borders all the contours of the polonaise. Under the polonaise, slit on the sides, is a false petticoat covered in satin, which appears between the slits.
