Origin France
Description An extremely fine Sèvres small square tray with a complex and intricate raised, pierced and gilded border, painted with a pastoral scene to the centre and reserved on a pink Taillandier ground.

The grounds that often accompanied this type of decoration were painted by Vincent Taillandier or his wife, Geneviève. These were in the form of tiny dots or circles in various different colours, which are known as fond Taillandier. Taillandier is accredited with the creation of this design.
