A jewel of French faience from the famed Longwy pottery in Lorraine, France. This plate is decorated in Longwy's signature émaux cloisonnés technique, where raised outlines form tiny cells that are hand-filled with colored enamels. A dense floral design in rich jewel tones sits on the iconic Longwy turquoise ground, with a glossy, almost gemlike finish.
The plate is set in an ornate gilt brass stand with decorative handles and feet, ready to display on a coffee table, bookshelf, or vanity. It also works beautifully as a catchall for rings and small treasures.
The reverse bears the impressed LONGWY factory mark and a hand-painted decorator number.
A colorful accent for chinoiserie, Hollywood Regency, or traditional interiors, and a perfect gift for a Francophile or collector.
