Specialist note

This form appears in the Sevres archives for the first time in 1757, and seems to have been made with some slight variations to the form. See T. Preaud and A. Fay-Halle, Porcelaines de Vincennes Les Origines de Sevres, Exhibition Catalogue, Grand Palais, 14 October 1977- 16 January 1978, p. 137, no. 405. Francois-Marie Barrat oncle is recorded at the factory as a painter specializing in flowers and patterns from 1769 to 1791 and 1795 to 1796; his colleague Jean-Baptiste-Emmanuel Vande pere as a gilder and painter from 1753 to 1779.
