The jug stands on three short rustic feet. The 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 rustic handle rises up directly from the rim and curves upwards and then outwards and downwards in a single loop until it meets the most bulbous part of the body. Sprays of flowers and leaves in relief sprout from the junctions of the legs and handle with the body. The pear-shaped reserve beneath the lip is painted in polychrome enamels with a mauve and blue bird perched on the branch of a tree with more trees in the background, and surrounded by a band of gilding tooled with a zig-zag line. There is a band of gold oeil-de-perdrix pattern on the green ground immediately below the lip, which is divided from the remainder of the ground by a wavy gold line entwined with a garland of gold leaves. The flowers and leaves in relief are gilded and there are touches of gilding on the feet and handle.C.31-19611accession numberC.31-196174404priref74404urihttps://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/74404https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/74404referenceagent-149638adlib-agent-1496387376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8The Fitzwilliam MuseumL.C.G.

This example is of the second size which was mentioned in 1753. Green grounds were rare before 1756, and were probably not in normal production until after the move to Sèvres. The shade became darker, which suggests that this unmarked example dates from several years later.referenceterm-106496adlib-term-106496bd563695-7339-3178-a8c4-25189907099318th Century, Mid#referenceterm-15538adlib-term-15538e4001da7-ed48-3271-a6fb-c7f54095a1adLouis XVreferenceterm-113750adlib-term-1137509c94e435-9cde-38f2-b190-3a9ff2a77005literalFranceFrancecountrySèvrespresumed lead-glazereferenceterm-107733adlib-term-10773300160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4lead-glazereferenceterm-37637adlib-term-3763789b09133-dc0a-3a88-bd40-5aef1ad30ecbsoft-paste porcelainHeightcm9.5referencemedia-42475adlib-media-42475e739ee88-ab71-332d-80e8-992b856f42b3jpegaa/aa23/C_31_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels760widthpixels50717029266046711imagejpegaa/aa23/mid_C_31_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels750widthpixels50017029266046711imagejpegaa/aa23/C_31_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels760widthpixels50717029266046711imagejpegaa/aa23/preview_C_31_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels375widthpixels25017029266046711image0media
