From the museum record

This cover is part of a pair of covered vases that were created to contain potpourri, a mixture of flowers, herbs, and spices emitting ambient fragrance. This specific function offered a particularly fertile ground for the development of French porcelain, as manufactories experimented with forms, surface ornamentations, and placement of perforations.

Lupin’s visual index

A meticulously carved ivory disc is densely adorned with numerous stylized white roses.
