The jug stands on three crabstock feet. The bulbous body contracts at the neck and then flares upwards and outwards at the front to form a lip; the sides of the rim are notched and slightly everted. The crabstock handle rises from the rim and curves outwards and then downwards and inwards to rejoin the body at the most bulbous point. Sprays of flowers and leaves in relief sprout from the junctions of the handle and legs with the body. Under the lip, painted in crimson monochrome (camaieu pourpre), there is a putto wearing a garland, who sits on a drapery on top of a voluminous cloud. To his right, on the side of the jug, there is a floral spray and to his left, a flying bird holding a branch in its beak. The feet, handle, and relief ornament are outlined in gold, and there is a dentilated gold band round the lip.

Putti or cherubs after Boucher or in the manner of Boucher, described as 'Enfans camayeux' were one of the most popular types of decoration. An example of the first size with this type of decoration was sold on 28 November 1755 for 30 livres (about 23-25 livres to the £ sterling in mid-18th century). This form inspired by silver milk jugs was in production at Vincennes by October 1752 when the inventory of the factory's stock mentioned ‘1 petit pot au lait à 3 pieds’ was listed among the biscuit pieces awaiting firing (Ėtat des Pièces de Porcelaines trouvé en Biscuit lors de l’inventaire des Effets remis par Charles Adam à Eloy Brichard le 18 8br 1752 (Bibliothèque de l’Institut de France, MS 5673, p. 1v), A second size was mentioned in the record of a glaze firing on 19 March 1753, and a third size was added in 1756. This is the first size and largest size which ranged between 11.3 and 12.9 cm high. This size was often sold on its own, as opposed to in a set, which was more usual for the smaller sizes. reference term-106496 adlib-term-106496 bd563695-7339-3178-a8c4-251899070993 18th Century, Mid
