Soft-paste porcelain decorated with green ground colour, painting in blue, green, yellow, dark pink, red, and purple enamels, and gilded. The cup has a double-curved outline and entwined branch handle. The saucer is circular with a five-lobed edge, concave curving sides and a slight well in the centre. There is a hole for suspension in the footring of the saucer. The upper part of the cup and the outer part of the interior of the saucer have green grounds divided from the white lower and inner parts by trailing sprays of gold foliage and flowers, forming a wave pattern. Below, or within, in the arcs formed by the dips in the waves, are sprays of polychrome flowers. There are bands of gilding round the foot of the cup and of the saucer and dentilated bands round the lip of the cup, the outer edge of the saucer and the edge of the well. The leaf terminals of the handle are gilded, and there are two broad patches of gilding on the handle itself.

It was made in three sizes with a plain or cinquefoil-shaped saucer. This is the second size. The form had been introduced by October 1752, when ‘7 Gobelets hébert’ and ‘4 Soucoupes Id[em]’were included in a list of biscuit objects awaiting glazing at the beginning of the biscuit firing register. (Bibl. Institute de France, MS 5673 ) The third size followed in 1754. For the association of this type of cup with the name 'gobelet Hébert' see Eriksen, 1968 (see documentation). This form and pattern are more common with a bleu céleste than a green ground, which was not introduced until 1756, probably not until the autumn. The sales register for 1756 (Vy1 and Vy2) mentions numerous 'gobelet Hébert' described as' bleu céleste et guirlandes', which may have described this pattern. Given the date of the introduction of green grounds it seems likely that this cup and saucer could have been made in 1756 or the early part of 1757. 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 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 reference media-67100 adlib-media-67100 2ea54e01-c133-39f6-8f10-287bb8b2446d jpeg aa/aa23/C_34_20_26_20A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 507 width pixels 760 1616247164945 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_34_20_26_20A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 334 width pixels 500 1616247164945 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_34_20_26_20A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 507 width pixels 760 1616247164945 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_34_20_26_20A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 167 width pixels 250 1616247164945 1 image 0 media image reference media-67101 adlib-media-67101 291c2285-3758-349e-8dce-c3c513a2db7c jpeg aa/aa23/C_34_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 660 1616246080287 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_34_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 576 width pixels 500 1616246080287 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_34_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 660 1616246080287 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_34_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 288 width pixels 250 1616246080287 1 image 1 media image reference media-67102 adlib-media-67102 6faee859-1bf5-3134-9371-124f6bbb26a1 jpeg aa/aa23/C_34A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 672 1616259924190 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_34A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 565 width pixels 500 1616259924190 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_34A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 672 1616259924190 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_34A_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 283 width pixels 250 1616259924190 1 image 2 media image reference media-1601003851 portfolio portfolio-media-1601003851 aef6e51c-b42e-3bb8-bce8-20139fb04a5f jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/871/large_C_34___A_1961_2_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529202805000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/871/mid_C_34___A_1961_2_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529202805000 1 image C.34 & A-1961_2_200902_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202805000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/871/preview_C_34___A_1961_2_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529202805000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/871/C_34___A_1961_2_200902_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5120 width pixels 3413 1529202805000 1 image 3 media image reference media-1641510834 portfolio portfolio-media-1641510834 be855c62-3813-3dc4-bf82-16275b25d1d2 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/874/large_C_34___A_1961_3_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529202808000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/874/mid_C_34___A_1961_3_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529202808000 1 image C.34 & A-1961_3_200902_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202808000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/874/preview_C_34___A_1961_3_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529202808000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/874/C_34___A_1961_3_200902_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5120 width pixels 3413 1529202808000 1 image 4 media image reference media-757369577 portfolio portfolio-media-757369577 2ae80305-a9a3-3f65-8cba-02de7cfb2641 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/869/large_C_34___A_1961_1_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 683 width pixels 1024 1529202803000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/869/mid_C_34___A_1961_1_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 333 width pixels 500 1529202803000 1 image C.34 & A-1961_1_200902_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202803000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/869/preview_C_34___A_1961_1_200902_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 167 width pixels 250 1529202803000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/869/C_34___A_1961_1_200902_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 3328 width pixels 4992 1529202803000 1 image 5 media image reference term-107532 adlib-term-107532 f00fbddb-30d4-39ff-bcf3-a87fbac64158 cup and saucer reference term-91165 adlib-term-91165 d22ea1ae-0f87-36a8-8ece-86eb0f380b42 cup reference term-91594 adlib-term-91594 d3814795-e106-33f3-98a0-da73b4855bb6 saucer factory name gobelet Hébert et soucoupe history note uncertain before Louis C.G.Clarke, MA, LL.D., Cambridge 1 reference object-93548 adlib-object-93548 e86aed63-abd7-38c9-bcf5-b6cd68551c15
