Elevate Your Table: Set of 8 French-Style Porcelain Scallop Shell Bowls
Bring a touch of coastal elegance and Parisian bistro flair to your home with this exquisite set of eight white porcelain scallop shell bowls.
Crafted in classic, high-fired whiteware, these dishes offer a timeless aesthetic that bridges the gap between formal dining and casual charm.
The Details
While these pieces are unmarked, their exceptional quality and weight suggest a prestigious heritage. The design is identical to the trademarked shell series by the renowned Charles Pillivuyt et Cie, France.
Each bowl features a subtle, raised underglaze stamp—a hallmark of authentic craftsmanship—though it remains an intriguing mystery as it is nearly impossible to capture on camera.
Material: Fine white porcelain (durable and chip-resistant)
Dimensions: 6.5" L x 5.5" W x 1.5" H
Quantity: Complete set of eight (8)
Origin: Believed to be French (Pillivuyt style)
Versatility Meets Function
These aren't just decorative accents; they are workhorses for the modern kitchen. Porcelain is naturally non-porous and thermal-shock resistant, making these as practical as they are beautiful.
Entertaining: The perfect vessel for Marcona almonds, olives, dipping sauces, or a sophisticated scoop of lemon sorbet.
Culinary: Safe for use as bakeware—ideal for individual seafood gratins, Coquilles Saint-Jacques, or crème brûlée.
Beyond the Kitchen: Their organic shape makes them stunning additions to a vanity or bath for holding guest soaps, jewelry, or trinkets.
Condition Note
These bowls are in excellent vintage condition with a brilliant glaze. As noted, they are unmarked, allowing the superior silhouette and porcelain quality to speak for themselves.
Measurements: 6.5"L x 5.5"W x 1.5"H
