Saint-Cloud porcelain

Soft-paste porcelain made in Saint-Cloud, France, from the last quarter of the 17th century until 1766. Much of the yellowish or creamy off-white porcelain was influenced by late Ming Chinese white porcelain—hence the plum-blossom decoration molded in low relief and figures in the Chinese manner.
