Introducing a beautiful Hébert cup and saucer set created by the Sèvres porcelain manufactory in 18th-century France. This piece, crafted around 1757, showcases exquisite artistry and craftsmanship.
The cup and saucer are decorated with birds rendered in soft purple camaieu (a technique using shades of a single color). The birds are meticulously depicted, perched gracefully on tree branches, capturing a delicate natural scene. The edges are accented with fine gold "dentelés" (zigzag lines), adding an elegant finishing touch to the overall design.
Details:
- Period: mid-18th century (circa 1757)
- Manufacturer: Manufacture royale de Sèvres (France)
- Signature: The underside of the pieces bears the hallmark of 18th-century Sèvres porcelain: the "double L interlaced" mark, along with the mark of Edmé Gomery, an artist active between 1756 and 1758 who specialized in painting birds.
- Material: soft-paste porcelain
- Dimensions:
- Cup: Height 6.5 cm x Diameter 7.7 cm (Width including handle 10.3 cm)
- Saucer: Diameter 13.7 cm x Height 3 cm
- Quantity: 1 cup, 1 saucer
- Condition: This antique set remains in very good condition. Despite being over 260 years old, it shows no significant damage or signs of restoration. As is typical of pieces from this era, minor black specks or slight warping may be present due to the manufacturing process of the time. These are reflective of the handcrafted techniques used and should not be considered defects. Please review the listing photos carefully before making your purchase.

from 7 reviewsEin wunderschönes Objekt . Der Kontakt war freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Paket war bei der französischen Post etwas nachlässig befördert worden . Die Händler haben sich sehr darum gekümmert und alles ist dann gut und heil angekommen. Der Verkäufer ist sehr zu empfehlen.
I'm absolutely thrilled with my purchase! The antique hand mirror is even more beautiful and detailed than I expected. It was dispatched and arrived very quickly, and the packaging was extremely careful and secure. I'm so happy I could find such a unique and exquisite piece without having to travel a long distance. Thank you so much!
