Description from the seller

Manufacture: France
Material and technique: White porcelain painted in polychromy and gilded in gold
Model / Decoration: The cup is decorated with a scene of musical putti, the saucer with trophies of musical instruments
Period: 19th century
Dimensions: Cup height: 7 cm; Saucer diameter: 13 cm

Description of the work
Cup complete with a coordinated saucer in fine porcelain.
The cup, characterized by a smooth body and an elegant profile adorned with gold, is equipped with a side handle, partially gilded in gold, which emphasizes its refined Rococo-inspired shape. The saucer features the same gold decoration with a smooth edge.

The pictorial apparatus proposes on the body of the cup two putti playing. The bottom of the saucer is enhanced by triumphs of musical and floral motifs in polychromy, executed with extraordinary freshness and attention to detail.

On the bottom of the saucer there is an inscription in large characters (to translate): «fabriqué à Sèvres, decoration… le comte de Saint-Didier… nell’anno 1818».
