This porcelain saucer and cup, made at the Sèvres Porcelain Factory in France between 1770 and 1774, is a beautiful example of the Rococo style. The saucer features delicate floral garlands, elegant ribbons, and four medallions depicting scenes from nature. The cup is decorated with a similar floral garland design and a medallion that portrays a man and a woman looking at each other. This set, with its elegant details and intricate designs, was likely used for tea or coffee by a wealthy family in 18th century France.
