Between then and 1789 over 1000 were produced. Sir Geoffrey de Bellaigure (see Documentation) cited over 80 in 1784, over 400 in 1785,nearly 500 in 1786, about 160 in 1787 and fewer than 20 in 1788. He identified this as possibly as one of three gobelet litron decorated by Tardy for which he received payment shortly after 19 August in 1784 (MNS Vj’3, fo. 257). Floral initials were also painted by C.-N. Buteux. The gobelet litron was named after a cubic measure, the litron, which was normally made of wood, and was used for dry stuffs, such as corn and peas. 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, Préaux 1991, Bellaigue 2009, Savill, 1988) This is a gobelet litron of the second size with Savill's handle B. This size was usually supplied separately rather than in a tea set. Its decoration suggests that it was bought as a gift for someone with the initial T. reference term-106779 adlib-term-106779 f0706fcd-d94c-3987-bcb5-f7f794332b6a 18th Century, Late reference term-14265 adlib-term-14265 b9f6d73e-26ce-3588-a519-976c2cc93f7f Louis XVI 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 6.8 reference media-59073 adlib-media-59073 f0417792-1ea0-39a9-b2b7-07c6fce13e42 jpeg aa/aa23/C_230_1918.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 651 1616285037446 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_230_1918.jpg 1 height pixels 584 width pixels 500 1616285037446 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_230_1918.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 651 1616285037446 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_230_1918.jpg 1 height pixels 292 width pixels 250 1616285037446 1 image 0 media image reference media-59070 adlib-media-59070 874c467b-9ba7-3340-98ea-4700255fa005 jpeg aa/aa20/C_230_1918_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 652 1616264551461 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/mid_C_230_1918_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 583 width pixels 500 1616264551461 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/C_230_1918_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 652 1616264551461 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/preview_C_230_1918_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 291 width pixels 250 1616264551461 1 image 1 media image reference media-59071 adlib-media-59071 35834e72-a3e1-37d5-bc0b-b8b1d2164fff jpeg aa/aa20/C_230_1918.jpg 1 height pixels 653 width pixels 760 1616248536988 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/mid_C_230_1918.jpg 1 height pixels 430 width pixels 500 1616248536988 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/C_230_1918.jpg 1 height pixels 653 width pixels 760 1616248536988 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/preview_C_230_1918.jpg 1 height pixels 215 width pixels 250 1616248536988 1 image 2 media image reference media-59072 adlib-media-59072 b62b6d21-5d39-302f-9da2-945d999e53ed jpeg aa/aa23/C_230_1918_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 602 1616273877720 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_230_1918_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 631 width pixels 500 1616273877720 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_230_1918_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 602 1616273877720 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_230_1918_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 316 width pixels 250 1616273877720 1 image 3 media image reference media-4197924411 portfolio portfolio-media-4197924411 26483eef-dade-3daf-a243-1eb503f6be5f jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/724/large_C_230_1918_2_200904_mfj22_ma.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529202694000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/724/mid_C_230_1918_2_200904_mfj22_ma.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529202694000 1 image C.230-1918_2_200904_mfj22_ma.tif 1529202694000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/724/preview_C_230_1918_2_200904_mfj22_ma.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529202694000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/724/C_230_1918_2_200904_mfj22_ma.ptif 1 height pixels 5120 width pixels 3413 1529202694000 1 image 4 media image reference media-2534809009 portfolio portfolio-media-2534809009 2cf05914-00ca-3079-8ce2-4012634ad3f0 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/723/large_C_230_1918_1_200904_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1416 width pixels 1024 1529202694000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/723/mid_C_230_1918_1_200904_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 691 width pixels 500 1529202694000 1 image C.230-1918_1_200904_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202694000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/723/preview_C_230_1918_1_200904_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 346 width pixels 250 1529202694000 1 image 5 media image reference term-91165 adlib-term-91165 d22ea1ae-0f87-36a8-8ece-86eb0f380b42 cup object name reference term-113690 adlib-term-113690 207e9fd2-c0ad-3831-8ed1-f68ea34e9a50 teaware category factory name gobelet litron history note Unknown before donor, Ralph Griffin, MA, St John's College, Cambridge 1 reference object-86619 adlib-object-86619 d8a6e73b-d88c-3465-ab65-b3dace8e6c4f
