There are two bands of gilding round the foot and raised fillet, one on the fillet above the reserve, and a dentilated band round the rim. The cover has a dentilated gold band round the outer edge and a gold finial.

The mustard pots were accompanied by lobed stands of two slightly different forms. See Documentation, Paris (1978), pp. 59-60.This mustard pot probably dates from late 1752 or the first eight months of 1753 because Vielliard did not enter the factory until September that year, and it does not bear the date letter A assigned in 1845 to 1753, but probably not introduced until 1754.referenceterm-106496adlib-term-106496bd563695-7339-3178-a8c4-25189907099318th Century, Mid#referenceterm-15538adlib-term-15538e4001da7-ed48-3271-a6fb-c7f54095a1adLouis XVreferenceterm-113744adlib-term-113744da105475-9705-3ee7-94ad-24892e6217d4literalFranceFrancecountryliteralVal-de-MarneVal-de-MarneregionVincennesreferenceterm-107733adlib-term-10773300160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4lead-glazereferenceterm-37637adlib-term-3763789b09133-dc0a-3a88-bd40-5aef1ad30ecbsoft-paste porcelainHeightcm8.7referencemedia-53518adlib-media-5351892edf6d4-a652-34ce-9241-d621d2cd365cjpegaa/aa23/C_12_20_26_20A_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels760widthpixels57216162669166461imagejpegaa/aa23/mid_C_12_20_26_20A_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels664widthpixels50016162669166461imagejpegaa/aa23/C_12_20_26_20A_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels760widthpixels57216162669166461imagejpegaa/aa23/preview_C_12_20_26_20A_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels332widthpixels25016162669166461image0media
