Two other documentary Etiolles pieces, both dated 1770, are in the British Museum, illustrated in Aileen Dawson, French Porcelain in the British Museum, 1994, pp. 295-296, cat. nos. 222 and 223.
Little is known about the Etiolles porcelain factory which was probably established around 1766. The mark , a monogram for Jean-Baptiste Monier and Etienne-Dominique Pellevé, was registered for the manufactory but seems to have been hardly used. The last known mention of the factory was in August 1774. See A. Dawson, , pp. 293-296, for a full discussion of the manufactory.
