for Sèvres

A small item container for the Sèvres manufactury, which boasts deep ties with the Monarchy of France forged during its more than 275 years of history.

这是塞夫勒工厂的一个小物品容器，该工厂拥有超过275年的历史，与法国君主制有着很深的联系。

Porcelain crafted by the highly-skilled artisans of Sèvreshas very little distortion and it is said that the thinnest, most uniform pieces produce the clearest, most beautiful ringing sound. Because of this, the artisans check the quality of their pieces by lightly flicking the porcelain’s surface. As an expression of this sign of masterful craftsmanship, the design of the modestly-sized small item containers incorporates a lid that rings likea bell (=suzu).

由技艺高超的塞夫勒工匠制作的瓷器失真很小，据说最薄、最均匀的瓷器能发出最清晰、最美丽的清脆声音。因此，工匠们通过轻弹瓷器表面来检查瓷器的质量。作为这种高超工艺的表现，这款大小适中的小型物品容器的设计融入了一个像铃铛一样响的盖子。

A delicate, crystal clear ringing can be heard each time the lid is removed to access the accessories or snacks stored within. The colouring of the containers features a dark blue pigment made with cobalt oxide with the addition of some white and a touch of gold. This dark blue – known as Bleu deRoi, or royal blue – is a characteristic colour of the Sèvres manufactury and was developed by the French royal porcelain manufactury during the 18th century.

每次打开盖子，打开里面的配件或零食时，都能听到一声清脆剔透的声音。容器的颜色是由氧化钴加上一些白色和少许黄金制成的深蓝色颜料。这种深蓝色被称为蓝Roi，或皇家蓝，是塞夫勒瓷器厂的特色颜色，是由法国皇家瓷器厂在18世纪开发的。

The small item containers are available in a total of 5 different size and height combinations that each produces its own unique tone,allowing one to enjoy the beauty of Sèvres porcelain via both sight and sound.

小物品容器共有5种不同大小和高度的组合，每个组合产生自己独特的色调，让人通过视觉和声音来欣赏塞夫勒瓷器的美丽。
