Reading edition
See M. Seymour de Ricci in the introduction to the Catalogue of a Collection of Mounted Porcelain belonging to E. M. Hodgkins, Paris, 1911, where much interesting information has been collected on the subject of French mounts and their designers. He quotes also from the Livre-journal de Lazare Duvaux marchand-bijoutier ordinaire du Roy (1748–1758), which includes a list of objects mounted for Madame de Pompadour and others, giving the nature of the wares and the cost of the work.
