Pot-pourri
À l’époque de la fabrication de ce vase, la manufacture royale française des porcelaines de Sèvres était la plus influente et la plus prestigieuse d’Europe. La disposition complexe des ouvertures percées dans le couvercle et l’épaulement du vase, la riche couleur turquoise ainsi que la minutie de la peinture et de la dorure mettent en valeur le caractère novateur de la forme et du décor. La première propriétaire du pot-pourri fut Madame de Pompadour, l’une des maîtresses de Louis XV.
