Its size in Paris had been defined in 1670 as the equivalent of 9.45 cm high and 10.15 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 earlier (records are lacking).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 and d'Albis, 1991, Savill, 1988, Bellaigue, 2009) This is a gobelet litron of the second size which was in production by 1753 with Savill's handle shape C, and tooling pattern 5. The trophies are typical of the gaily coloured ones painted by Charles Buteux. Unsuccessful as a figure painter in his early years at the factory, he became ts most prolific painter of trophies and attributes. 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 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-38788 adlib-media-38788 e9b824ee-1a59-3178-a25f-1c2aeaf8a4d4 jpeg aa/aa23/C_2X_20_26_20A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 507 width pixels 760 1702926378371 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_2X_20_26_20A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 334 width pixels 500 1702926378371 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_2X_20_26_20A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 507 width pixels 760 1702926378371 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_2X_20_26_20A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 167 width pixels 250 1702926378371 1 image 0 media image reference media-38789 adlib-media-38789 34229030-576b-3325-8029-74e23fc1a0f9 jpeg aa/aa23/C_2_X_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 579 1702926756420 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_2_X_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 656 width pixels 500 1702926756420 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_2_X_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 579 1702926756420 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_2_X_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 328 width pixels 250 1702926756420 1 image 1 media image reference media-38787 adlib-media-38787 b4069889-da3b-3a3e-afea-4431918567dc jpeg aa/aa23/C_2A_X.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 617 1702926784161 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_2A_X.jpg 1 height pixels 616 width pixels 500 1702926784161 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_2A_X.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 617 1702926784161 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_2A_X.jpg 1 height pixels 308 width pixels 250 1702926784161 1 image 2 media image reference media-3086813032 portfolio portfolio-media-3086813032 012c6680-1fa7-316d-8a59-b8348bf87240 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/644/large_C_2___A_X_3_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529202626000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/644/mid_C_2___A_X_3_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529202626000 1 image C.2 & A-X_3_200901_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202626000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/644/preview_C_2___A_X_3_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529202626000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/644/C_2___A_X_3_200901_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5120 width pixels 3413 1529202626000 1 image 3 media image reference media-3378175861 portfolio portfolio-media-3378175861 d9833475-2ac4-31da-82ba-cf973712460b jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/645/large_C_2___A_X_4_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1543 width pixels 1024 1529202627000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/645/mid_C_2___A_X_4_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 753 width pixels 500 1529202627000 1 image C.2 & A-X_4_200901_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202627000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/645/preview_C_2___A_X_4_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 377 width pixels 250 1529202627000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/645/C_2___A_X_4_200901_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5061 width pixels 3359 1529202627000 1 image 4 media image reference media-2291169654 portfolio portfolio-media-2291169654 ac38608f-c6cc-3d3c-a4b0-caec2eb2c58a jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/640/large_C_2___A_X_1_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 683 width pixels 1024 1529202622000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/640/mid_C_2___A_X_1_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 333 width pixels 500 1529202622000 1 image C.2 & A-X_1_200901_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202622000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/640/preview_C_2___A_X_1_200901_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 167 width pixels 250 1529202622000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/640/C_2___A_X_1_200901_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 3413 width pixels 5120 1529202622000 1 image 5 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 1 reference object-93537 adlib-object-93537 8f17d21e-402d-3422-87a9-5c1dcd3c383a
