Rare model, probably from the beginning of the LM & Cie company (1841) when the English Georges Vernon and Jacques Bagnall (defector from the Manufacture de Chantilly) introduced soft porcelain to the CREIL and MONTEREAU FAÏENCERIES. The "twig" model, dear to Chantilly, comes from there.

A sugar bowl with the same model of twigs and in soft porcelain is present in the collections of the Gallé-Juillet Museum, Maison de la faience, in Creil.

  Condition: Very good condition. No chips, no cracks, no chips.
