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 earlier.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, Saville, 1988, Bellaigue 2009). This is a gobelet litron and saucer of the third size, with Savill's handle C. Bleu céleste was an overglaze ground colour introduced in 1753. It was was often combined with flower painting in the reserves. reference term-106496 adlib-term-106496 bd563695-7339-3178-a8c4-251899070993 18th Century, Mid reference term-15538 adlib-term-15538
