ProfessionalProduct description
A charming testament to French dining tables from the interwar period. This set comprises three antique Lunéville faience deep plates, identifiable by their old mark still visible on the reverse. Their decoration directly immerses us in the aesthetic of the 1920s-1930s, a time when French manufacturers embraced the new lines of Art Deco while retaining their long tradition of floral motifs. Against a slightly warm ivory background stands out a particularly graphic bouquet, composed of wine-red flowers and deep blue foliage. The composition, deliberately off-center, breaks with the symmetrical floral decorations of the previous century. Around the well runs a delicate succession of small red triangles, almost like geometric punctuation. It is precisely this interplay between stylized flora and geometry that gives the decoration its full Art Deco character. In Lunéville, faience pottery is part of a history that began in the 18th century. Over generations, the factory has adapted to the evolution of French decorative arts, refreshing its forms and designs. These plates belong to that particularly appealing period when everyday tableware also became a canvas for graphic expression. With their approximate 23 cm diameter, they retain a very pleasing presence. Time has left them with that slight patina so sought after in antique faience. Two plates show small chips on the rim, accurately photographed. They bear witness to their use and have naturally been factored into their price. Sold as a set, the three form a charming decorative ensemble. Displayed in an antique dresser, on a kitchen shelf, propped against a wall, or mixed with mismatched crockery, they immediately bring the atmosphere of old French homes. Three plates, almost a century old, and still these red and blue flowers that have lost none of their freshness.
