We are pleased to present a beautiful set of Litron cup and saucer, produced by the Sèvres factory in France during the late 18th century (circa 1770-1780). Crafted from soft-paste porcelain, this exquisite piece showcases delicate and elegant designs characteristic of the period.

The cup and saucer feature a classic motif of roses, a hallmark of 18th-century Sèvres porcelain. The roses are intricately painted from various angles, surrounded by a lush leaf pattern that enhances the overall design. The rims are adorned with gold-painted "dents de loup" (wolf's tooth) decoration, adding a refined touch. The combination of vivid florals and the harmonious gold accents is a perfect example of Sèvres' aristocratic charm.

Details:

Period: late 18th century (circa 1770-1780)
Manufacturer: Manufacture royale de Sèvres (France)
Signature: On the reverse, you can find the blue intertwined "double L" mark, which is a sign of authenticity from the pre-Revolutionary Sèvres period. The marks of both the gilder and the painter are also visible.
Artist

Decoration: Very likely by Michel-Gabriel Commelin (active 1768-1802), based on the signature.
Gilding: Pierre-Théodore Buteux (active 1765-1780)

Saucer: Diameter 12.5 cm x Height 3.2 cm

Quantity: 1 cup, 1 saucer
Condition: The item is in very good condition for an antique. Although over 240 years have passed since its production, there is slight wear to the gilding and painted areas from years of use, but it does not detract from its overall aesthetic appeal. Additionally, small black spots or slight warping may be present, which reflect the manufacturing techniques of the time. These are not defects but characteristics resulting from non-industrial production methods. Please review the photos carefully before purchasing.
