[QUOTE="Lecollectionneur, post: 422413, member: 8569"]Looking at the details of the painting, and the Sèvres mark, in my opinion it's a fantasy mark from the beginning of the 20th century, the word Sèvres is on the pièces of this size in the mark or just under, the decorator is not on the current Sèvres recorded initials, if the piece is 19th century you can see black small spots lightly hollow under especially in the center part and often on the upper part dissimulated in the paint by the decorator. In 18-19th century european porcelain, the more valuable were the white ones which are the most difficult to obtain without spots, more the piece is decorated more you can found those spots under magnifying binocular. End of the 19th century and 20th Sèvres have a mark made with a stamp, if you want I have some samples I can take a picture for the under part. You have a very documented [URL='https://www.sevresciteceramique.fr/manufacture/les-marques-de-sevres.html']site on the Sèvres marks here.[/URL][/QUOTE]
