| Production | Acquired as 'perhaps Lunéville, second half of the 18th century'; for another sugar ladle of this pattern, also with tentative attribution to Lunéville but with gilt decoration similar to that attributed to Saint-Clément see 1411-1902 (for gilt Saint-Clément decoration see Dorothée Guillemé Brulon, Strasbourg & Niderviller - Sources et rayonnement, Histoire de la Faïence Francaise, Paris, 1999, p. 114, and see ibid p. 108 for a very different sugar ladle attributed to Lunéville). Examined by Christian Maire November 2004, who considered it Saint Clément. |
