The border is also known on blue and white plates with scenes of tea processing. Howard & Ayers (1978) suggest that this border may have been designed by a European artist (like Pronck), influenced by Rouen faience (see Le Corbeiller, 1974), in the late 1730’s and commissioned specifically for the tea processing plates and then used for this service too. As a merchant Guillot would have handled tea, so it is possible that he also ordered the tea processing series. The Pignatelli armorial service has a similar border.
