Antique 19th Century Blue Faïence Plate IV
France
~1900
French Provincial
Antique
An antique French faïence plate found in Chambord, likely from around 1880. This rustic, hand-painted plate features the signature blue-on-cream aesthetic of regional French faïence, adorned with a delicate, freehand rose-like flower stem at its center and a charming repeating blossom border. The piece exhibits a beautifully aged, highly pronounced, and intricate network of crazing across the entire glaze, testifying to its century of history. Its gently scalloped edge is ground by warm, character-rich glaze wear and tiny, authentic rim nibbles that highlight its provincial utility.

At Maison Amaranth, we envision this floral plate as the centerpiece of a wall gallery, its blue colour creating a beautiful depth against a lime-washed kitchen wall. It is equally at home on a plate stand in an open cabinet, where its rustic 19th-century charm brings a touch of French brocante soul into the dining room.
