Vintage French Faience Dish / A

This delightful vintage French faïence deep dish is a wonderful example of mid-century folk-art ceramics, decorated with a beautifully stylised rooster in vibrant shades of rose pink, green and warm yellow. Surrounded by sweeping hand-painted feather-like motifs around the rim, the design feels lively and expressive, echoing the spirited brushwork seen in regional workshops such as Quimper, Sarreguemines and Lunéville.

Measuring around 26 cm in diameter and shaped with a pleasing depth, this dish is both decorative and practical. It works perfectly as a serving piece, a table centrepiece, or simply displayed on a dresser or wall. Its handmade nature, visible in the brushstrokes and gentle irregularities of the tin-glazed earthenware, gives it the individuality and warmth that make vintage French pottery so collectable.
