What is the pattern of the classic Belgian D’uccle called? Which chicken breeds are clean legged and have the same (or similar) pattern?

I’m a fan of the colors of this chicken and this question has been killing me because I can’t find out what it’s called. Any of y’all know which chicken has a similar pattern and clean legs? Thanks!

Mille fleur.

Pycheons are clean legged
 
Yes, that is the mille fleur pattern, and it means 'many flowers'. Pyncheons have the same pattern but are extremely rare. It may be easier to find mille fleur old English game bantams. Spangled old English are similar but with a darker background color.View attachment 3263479View attachment 3263482
How pretty! I’m looking into bantams so it would be a nice stroke of luck if I could find either of those :)
