The present shell-shaped dishes and the plates that follow are from a service presented by Louis XVI to the Archduke Ferdinand and Archduchess Maria Beatrice of Austria in 1786 in honor of their visit to France. Described in the factory records as fond bleu céleste, Marguerites, barbeaux et Roses, the service was presented by Louis XVI to members of Marie-Antoinette's family.
