介绍（中）	对于塞夫尔瓷器厂来说，法国大革命的岁月是艰难的。传统上购买其产品的大多数贵族客户要么被杀，要么被流放，对瓷器等奢侈品的需求在革命造成的毁灭性经济中大大减少。然而，尽管面临这些挑战，塞夫尔工厂还是设法生存了下来，其一些最原始的产品可以追溯到这一时期。这个水壶和盆反映了十八世纪最后十年时尚前沿的几种风格潮流。水壶和水壶的简洁优雅线条体现了最新新古典主义品味的紧缩，当代对硬石的迷恋可以在装饰盆外部和水壶下半部分的仿斑岩表面中看到。青金石、大理石和斑岩是塞夫尔画家模仿的表面之一;斑岩的复杂斑点图案和深紫色色调一定特别难以实现，因为即使在像这个水壶和盆这样的昂贵物品上，这种类型的装饰也很少见。
介绍（英）	For the Sèvres porcelain factory, the years of the French Revolution were difficult ones. The majority of the aristocratic clientele that had traditionally purchased its products were either killed or driven into exile, and the demand for luxury products such as porcelain was much diminished in the ruinous economy created by the Revolution. Despite these challenges, however, the Sèvres factory managed to survive, and some of its most original products date from this period. This ewer and basin reflect several stylistic currents at the forefront of fashion in the last decade of the eighteenth century. The spare, elegant lines of both the ewer and basin embody the austerity of the most up-to-date Neoclassical taste, and the contemporary fascination with hardstones can be seen in the imitation porphyry surfaces that decorate the exterior of the basin and the bottom half of the ewer. Lapis lazuli, marble, and porphyry were among the surfaces imitated by the painters at Sèvres; the complex speckled patterns and the deep purple hue of porphyry must have been especially difficult to achieve, for this type of decoration is rare even on expensive objects such as this ewer and basin.
