Grapes and Figs: Charming 19th Century Hand-painted Faience Plate with Scalloped Edge

Regular price $60.00

My guess is that this is 19th century French, decorated with hand-painted grapes and figs, though it's got a particular sort of folkiness about it that feels a bit more English or Dutch to me. (I'm also noticing a nice rhyme between the handling of the green leaves on this and the beaded sprigs on the Seneca pin cushion I've also listed today.)  Whatever the case, it feels wonderfully warm and harvest-time festive to me, perfect for hanging on the wall in kitchen, perhaps to to take down occasionally to serve up a bunch of grilled figs stuffed with feta and honey (say!) With a lovely, finely scalloped edge, too. 

9 5/16" in diameter. Excellent antique condition. With plate hanger, as found, included.
