Decorated with the famous image of the young girl writing “Chocolat Menier” across the wall, this piece captures the spirit of Belle Époque French advertising while functioning as an elegant umbrella or cane stand.

The decoration bears both the artist’s 1893 signature within the artwork and the Affiches-Camis-Paris attribution.

The ceramic body exhibits an unglazed interior with visible kiln glaze runs and a naturally finished base consistent with vintage ceramic production. Presented in exceptional condition with vivid color and no chips or cracks.

* Bistro and café décor
* Libraries and studies
* Entryways
