The scene depicts a tranquil riverside landscape with cottage and trees, executed in gentle pastel tones.
Presented in an ornate black and gilt frame, this piece works beautifully as wall art and pairs well with traditional, European country, and grandmillennial interiors.
The backing label reads (translated): “La Chambre Syndicale des Maîtres Émailleurs Limousins garantit que cet émail a été entièrement exécuté à la main…” The Trade Guild of Master Enamelers of Limousin guarantees that this enamel was entirely hand executed…
