※ SEVRES Sèvres ※ French National Kiln - Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres (French National Sèvres Porcelain Factory) Madame de Pompadour, who was favored by Louis XV and was also known as the shadow prime minister, had a deep understanding of culture and art and was a great lover of ceramics. In 1756, she moved the kiln in Vincennes, north of Paris, which had been developed under the protection of the state, to her own mansion, Belvédère, in Sèvres, west of Paris. Later, in 1759, it became the "Royal Sèvres Porcelain Factory," but due to its background as a national kiln, production was very limited and it was called "rare porcelain." Even today, production is limited to 6,000 pieces, almost all of which are made for the French state. This small-scale production is essential for "creating the best works," and the rarity of the pieces has further enhanced the reputation of the proud Sèvres. ※ Round Dish 24K Gold Gilt Pattern The form of this work was conceived by Jean-Baptiste Gauvevnet (Jean-Baptiste Gauvenet), who was engaged in production activities as a sculptor in the workshop of the French National Sèvres Porcelain Factory from 1908 to 1950. ※ Fat Blue In the world of ceramics, "blue" (lapis lazuli color) is said to be the most difficult color to express. There are three types of Sèvres blue: Deep lapis lazuli color <Fat Blue> <Cloudy Blue> which expresses the clouds in the night sky <Agatha Blue> which is a bright and gorgeous aquamarine color All of them are unique and are the reason why they are called the blue of the king. ※ Molding Year 1963 ※ Size Diameter 9.5cm Height 3cm Foot Diameter 5cm ※ Reference Price ¥132,000 ※ Vintage Unused Storage Item I purchased this item in October 1987 when the "Sèvres Porcelain Masterpiece Exhibition" was held at the Daimaru Shinsaibashi store.
