For Mme de Pompadour truly had the brilliance to appreciate the arts and promote them, displaying a diplomatic tact and a vision, which bears fruits till today with the Manufacture de Sèvres.
Dame Rosalind Savill, CBE, Honorary Director of the Wallace Collection, headed the Wallace Collection from 1992 to 2011. The Wallace is host to some of the finest porcelaines de Sèvres and Dame Savill is one of the most renowned world experts of Porcelaine de Sèvres. She will offer a birthday bouquet to Madame de Pompadour -and to ourselves- bringing the rococo garden indoors with Sèvres flowers, with her unique style and savviness.
