The jug stands on three branch feet. Its bulbous body contracts at the neck and then flares upwards and outwards at the front to form a lip, the rim at the sides being slightly everted and notched. The crabstock handle rises up directly from the rim and curves upwards and then outwards and downwards until it meets the most bulbous part of the body. Small sprays of flowers and foliage in relief sprout from the junctions of the legs and handle with the body. The ground is bleu céleste with a pear-shaped reserve below the lip, painted in polychrome with a bouquet of mixed flowers and foliage, and framed by a band of tooled gilding. Round the neck there are looped garlands of gold leaves, and two sprays descend inside on either side of the lip All the applied flowers and leaves are gilded, and there are touches of gilding on the handle and feet.

It was in production by October 1752 and a second size had been introduced by March 1753. A third size was made from 1756. This one is of the first size, (see Documentation, Savill, 1988). This decorative format of bleu céleste ground, with flowers in the reserve was extremely popular and long-lived.The tooled design on the gilding round the reserve is close to Savill's 72, (see Savill, 1988, III) 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-113750 adlib-term-113750 9c94e435-9cde-38f2-b190-3a9ff2a77005 literal France France country Sèvres presumed lead-glaze 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 Height cm 11.5 reference media-53594 adlib-media-53594 c6e103ec-053b-320c-b4d5-f2684516f112 jpeg aa/aa23/MAR_C_34_1912.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 507 1616277056753 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_MAR_C_34_1912.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1616277056753 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/MAR_C_34_1912.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 507 1616277056753 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_MAR_C_34_1912.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1616277056753 1 image 0 media image reference media-1522003349 portfolio portfolio-media-1522003349 1caebe0b-4985-3a36-8493-e63b5f2fd591 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/429/large_MAR_C_34_1912_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529203251000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/429/mid_MAR_C_34_1912_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529203251000 1 image MAR.C.34-1912_200902_mfj22_mas.tif 1529203251000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/429/preview_MAR_C_34_1912_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529203251000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/437/429/MAR_C_34_1912_200902_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5120 width pixels 3413 1529203251000 1 image 1 media image reference term-91373 adlib-term-91373 171ec8ee-d171-3136-92a4-c7b7ea2d16b1 milk jug object name reference term-113690 adlib-term-113690 207e9fd2-c0ad-3831-8ed1-f68ea34e9a50 teaware category factory name pot à lait à pieds factory name pot à lait a trois pieds history note unknown before C.B.
