This stunning design that will add style to any picnic is taken from a Sèvres Porcelain saucer dated 1760. The decoration consists of a scalloped border, suspended from which are painted garlands of roses, cornflowers and pansies interlaced in pairs to form heart shapes. The cup and matching saucer were probably acquired by the 3rd Marquess of Hertford (1777-1842).
