Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres
Founded 1740 at Vincennes; at Sèvres from 1756

- Ground colours and gilding on soft- and hard-paste porcelain
The manufactory began at Vincennes in 1740 and moved to Sèvres, near Madame de Pompadour’s château at Bellevue, in 1756. Louis XV bought it outright in 1759, and it has been a French state manufactory ever since.
It made soft-paste and then hard-paste porcelain of the highest order — the ground colours, bleu céleste and rose Pompadour among them, and the gilding are what it is known for. It still produces at Sèvres today.
The interlaced-L Sèvres mark is among the most copied marks in European ceramics, and much nineteenth-century porcelain carries it decoratively. We treat a Sèvres mark as a starting point, not a conclusion, and say what we are attributing on.
