About

This exhibition brings together two of the most extraordinary surviving sets of vases owned by Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette of France during the late 1700s. The vases are among the highest achievements of the Sèvres porcelain manufactory made before the French Revolution. They were personal treasures of the royal family and are a testament to the exemplary skills of the artists who took part in their creation.
