More about A Pair of Soft-Paste Sèvres Porcelain Cups and Saucers, circa 1758-60

These two cups and saucers and the matching teapot must come from a very rare and high-quality tea service with the slender trellis of turquoise-blue (bleu céleste) ground colour overlaid with very fine rococo gilding forming elaborate patterns. The bird painting can confidently be attributed to the great bird-painter at Sèvres, Armand the elder.
