FAQs

Sevres porcelain originates from the prestigious French royal manufactory established in the 18th century, renowned for producing soft-paste and later hard-paste porcelain exclusively for the French court and elite international clientele.

These decorative objects typically combine fine ceramic paste hand-painted with polychrome enamels and gilding, mounted in cast, chased, and fire-gilded bronze, often referred to as ormolu.

Authentic pieces generally feature underglaze blue cipher marks indicating the year of production, finely detailed hand-painted pastoral or floral scenes, and high-quality fire-gilded bronze mounts characteristic of the period.

Position the piece as a focal point on a high-end sideboard, mantelpiece, or glass display cabinet where its classical proportions, colour, and intricate details can be appreciated against a neutral background.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, and keep the object away from direct sunlight and high humidity to protect the delicate gilding and enamels.
