Some historical background of Sèvres: The Sèvres factory was established in 1738 at the Château de Vincennes, with local craftsmen from the nearby factory at Chantilly, to supply the wealthy and privileged of France under the patronage, and later the ownership, of King Louis the XVth. Sèvres porcelain was so loved by Louis the XVth, that when the company ran into financial difficulties, he bought out the shareholders and became sole proprietor from his palace at Versailles. Sèvres became known as the “Porcelain of French Royalty".
