Creil et Montereau Pottery Leaf Plates,
Set of Twelve Plates,
Circa 1840
The twelve pearlware plates from the Creil et Montereau company are circular with a deep blue ground on the rim. The whole center is in the form of a leaf with the ribs in blue too.
Diameter: 8 1/2 inches
The pottery of Creil (Oise), famous enough to be quoted by Gustave Flaubert in his book "L'education sentimentale", was founded in 1797. After several bankruptcies, production increases in the early nineteenth century, probably thanks to its new owner, St. Cricq Casale, and the arrival of Jacques Bagnall in the management team.
In 1840, the year St. Cricq Casale dies, the Creil factory merges with the one of Montereau (Seine et Marne). The company becomes "Creil and Montereau Faïenceries" under the name Lebeuf, Milliet & Co. (LM & Co.), until 1876.
