Sevres and Sevres style cassolettes

Sèvres porcelain is known for its exquisite beauty and fine craftsmanship. It has a rich history that dates back to the 18th century, and it continues to be highly prized by collectors and enthusiasts today.

The story of Sèvres porcelain begins in 1740, when a group of French businessmen and craftsmen decided to establish a porcelain factory in the town of Vincennes, near Paris. The factory was designed to produce high-quality porcelain that could rival the best Chinese and Meissen porcelain.

In 1756, the factory was moved to the nearby town of Sèvres, where it was expanded and modernized. The new factory quickly gained a reputation for producing some of the finest porcelain in the world, and it became a favourite of French royalty and nobility.
