"description": "A misconception influenced by 19th-century art historical texts, the pale pink that appears on S\u00e8vres porcelain is commonly and incorrectly called rose Pompadour after Madame de Pompadour, official mistress of French King Louis XV. Though she was a great patron of the factory, this pale pink ground did not carry her name during its mid-18th-century production. Instead, factory records refer to this striking pink simply as rose.",
