- Antique Vintage French Faience Majolica Wall Bowl Platter, fm802
Offered is this beautiful rare antique / vintage French Faience bowl from my last trip to France.
This is from the oldest faience factory in France. It was known as the BOUT DU MONDE which means the end of the earth. It opened in 1648 in Nevers which is in central France. In 1875 Antoine Montaignon bought it. Francois-Henri Signoret was the master faiencier and he came up with the famous green bow.
This piece is totally hand painted.
It features a scalloped and fluted rim trimmed in cobalt blue with a green and yellow hatch pattern, decorative medallions of ladies faces in traditional head dress with intermitant flowers, fruits and leaves. The center decor is also of geometrical flowers, fruits and leaves. Just beautiful!!
It measures 11.25 inches in diameter and stands 3 inches tall, the perfect size for display or use. It is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks. This has only been used as a display item. It has an old metal wire on the back for hanging on your wall.
This will be a lovely addition to your antique French faience or majolica collection!
