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 delicately carved ivory disc is densely populated with stylized white roses and foliage.
