A Sèvres square tray dated 1767, with a similar gallery and a blue and gold oeil-de-perdrix ground is illustrated by Svend Eriksen, Sèvres Porcelain, The James A. de Rothschild Collection at Waddesdon Manor, p. 205, no. 74, who indicates on p. 102 that "both square and oblong trays, with openwork rims of classical design, were made at Sèvres [after 1756 when the factory moved from Vincennes], and both shapes were produced in two sizes. Such trays were sold separately, or as part of a déjuner, and were not given a special name to distinguish them from trays with solid rims. Both types were known as plateaux carrés." The Waddesdon tray also is illustrated by Marcelle Brunet and Tamara Préaud, Sèvres, Des origines á nos jours, p. 92, color pl. XXXVIII.
