Its size in Paris had been defined in 1670 as the equivalent of 9.45 cm high and 10.15 cm in diameter in pouces and lignes, which was larger than the largest of the porcelain cups. The first size of gobelet litron had been introduced at Vincennes before October 1752 when it was mentioned in an inventory of stock, but was probably being made a few years.The second and third sizes followed in 1753, and the fourth and fifth in 1757. They could be fitted with one of seven different handle forms . A drawing in the archives at Sèvres is dated 19 February 1753 (MNS, R1, liasse 2, dossier 2, No. 6bis) They were supplied singly, singly with a plateau carré, in ’harlequin’ sets, or as part of matching dejeuner. (See Documentation, Savill, 1988, Bellaigure, 2009)) This is a gobelet litron of the third size, with Savill's handle B. Bleu céleste grounds were introduced in 1753 and were often combined with flower painting in the reserves. The marks on these pieces make it unlikely that they were originally a pair. Houry worked at the factory 1754-55, and Antoine-Joseph Chappuis jeune, aîné (1743-87), worked as a répareur 1756-61 and as a painter 1761-87. Vande père (1716-79?), worked at Vincennes and Sèvres, 1753-79. reference term-106496 adlib-term-106496 bd563695-7339-3178-a8c4-251899070993 18th Century, Mid reference term-15538 adlib-term-15538 e4001da7-ed48-3271-a6fb-c7f54095a1ad Louis XV reference term-113744 adlib-term-113744 da105475-9705-3ee7-94ad-24892e6217d4 literal France France country Vincennes presumed lead reference term-107733 adlib-term-107733 00160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4 lead-glaze reference term-37637 adlib-term-37637 89b09133-dc0a-3a88-bd40-5aef1ad30ecb soft-paste porcelain reference media-53545 adlib-media-53545 bcdcb07b-eb08-3962-aaba-06a4c8086b2d jpeg aa/aa23/MAR_C_33_1912_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 507 width pixels 760 1742584243553 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_MAR_C_33_1912_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 334 width pixels 500 1742584243553 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/MAR_C_33_1912_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 507 width pixels 760 1742584243553 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_MAR_C_33_1912_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 167 width pixels 250 1742584243553 1 image 0 media image reference media-53544 adlib-media-53544 6c452796-05e8-362a-8eb3-d71ca95ed45e jpeg aa/aa23/MAR_C_33.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 747 1742584181301 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_MAR_C_33.jpg 1 height pixels 509 width pixels 500 1742584181301 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/MAR_C_33.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 747 1742584181301 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_MAR_C_33.jpg 1 height pixels 254 width pixels 250 1742584181301 1 image 1 media image reference media-852371597 portfolio portfolio-media-852371597 55323a3b-9e2a-3ebb-be87-489beab97f67 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/425/large_MAR_C_33___A_1912_2_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529203247000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/425/mid_MAR_C_33___A_1912_2_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529203247000 1 image MAR.C.33 & A-1912_2_200901_mfj22_mas.tif 1529203247000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/425/preview_MAR_C_33___A_1912_2_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529203247000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/425/MAR_C_33___A_1912_2_200901_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 4992 width pixels 3328 1529203247000 1 image 2 media image reference media-3913313270 portfolio portfolio-media-3913313270 460a3fa2-712b-3ddb-83f6-e4e00b1fdc9e jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/424/large_MAR_C_33___A_1912_1_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 683 width pixels 1024 1529203247000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/424/mid_MAR_C_33___A_1912_1_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 333 width pixels 500 1529203247000 1 image MAR.C.33 & A-1912_1_200901_mfj22_mas.tif 1529203247000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/424/preview_MAR_C_33___A_1912_1_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 167 width pixels 250 1529203247000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/424/MAR_C_33___A_1912_1_200901_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 3328 width pixels 4992 1529203247000 1 image 3 media image reference term-107532 adlib-term-107532 f00fbddb-30d4-39ff-bcf3-a87fbac64158 cup and saucer object name reference term-91165 adlib-term-91165 d22ea1ae-0f87-36a8-8ece-86eb0f380b42 cup object name reference term-91594 adlib-term-91594 d3814795-e106-33f3-98a0-da73b4855bb6 saucer object name reference term-113690 adlib-term-113690 207e9fd2-c0ad-3831-8ed1-f68ea34e9a50 teaware category Gobelet litron et soucoupe history note unknown before testator, Charles Brinsely Marlay (1831-1912), St Katherine's Lodge, Regent's Park, London reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum reference publication-7490 adlib-publication-7490 9e6a9b2c-dc24-35e2-b78a-48be9ee638c9 Dictionnaire universel de commerce Ref.
