ovelties, but they didnot discard the original style for many years afterwards. These staple patterns, produced at first in cobalt blue,received a notable modification from the discovery and theliberal use of a bright and opaque red, unknown to the Nevers,and, indeed, at that time, to all other French potters. Howit happened that this scarce material, a natural red earth whichcan stand the highest degree of firing without losing anythingof its brilliance, was brought over to Rouen, has never trans-pired. The mineral is only obtainable from the small town ofThiviers in Perigord; for a long time this has been one of themost jealously guarded secrets of the trade. A presentationbowl in the town museum, inscribed Brument, 1699, is theearliest piece on which we see the opaque red appear inconnection with a date. It is needless to say that the use ofthat colour may be anterior by a few years. PLATE XI.ROUEN. Vase and Cover: *Lambrequins** Decoration, H. 13 in. D. of base, 6 in. (See p. 70.)
