專家說明

In a paper delivered to The French Porcelain Society on 17 June 2014, Cyrille Froissart convincingly reassigned the names of several vases found in the Sèvres factory records to other shapes. The form of the present cuvette or horizontal flower vase (jardinière), traditionally called a cuvette à fleurs ‘Verdun’, is now recognized as corresponding to a cuvette 'Roussel'. For a detailed discussion of the detective work that led to this and two other re-attributions, see C. Froissart, Des Cuvettes Démasqués, pp. 1-40.
