A Sèvres ice cup (tasse à glace) from a service 'à rubans Bleu Celeste' c.1769-70, painted with flower garlands entwined with a turquoise ribbon between narrow gilt bands, unmarked, 6.5cm. Provenance: purchased in London, 20th May 1990. This service was ordered by Madame du Barry via her banquier, Jean-Baptiste Buffault in December 1769 and included 44 tasses à glaces at a cost of 24 livres each. Much of the service was passed back to Buffault in 1771 and sold by him to an English buyer. This type of decoration became popular in England and three other services of this type were sold to England between 1770 and 1775, including one delivered to John Frederick Sackville, 3rd Duke of Dorset.
