Porquier-Beau Botanical Serving Pieces: the soft colors, the careful detail, the variety of shapes; all explain why this period and decor are such favorites with sophisticated collectors on both sides of the Atlantic.

Deeply scalloped large shallow bowl, low and inviting. 10-1/2" diameter, sitting on a 1/2" base. The sprays-of-lilies pattern has been dramatically expanded to fill the space right to the curled edges. Simple and elegant, it begs for center table attention. Signed: PB.

Footed coupe, 3-1/2" high, 9" diameter top. A happy bouquet of spring flowers centers in the dish, and also encircles the sturdy 2-1/4" base. A taller piece, like this one, always adds movement and interest to a table setting or shelf display. Signed: PB.
$1900.

Small candy dish with belted handle. A butterfly hovers over the flower sprays, the curled edges are blue decor riche on the inside, blue sponging on the exterior. It is 7-1/2" square, and 1-1/2" deep; it would be delicious filled with Jordan almonds, for example. Handle has been restored, but this dish is totally serving-ready; just don't put in the dishwasher! Signed: PB.

Large candy dish with buttoned ends on the leafy handle. A glorious bouquet of spring flowers is the dramatic center of this dish, which is 11" square, and 2-3/4" deep inside. Unusual yellow-and-green for the handle and decor riche design just enhances the blues of the outside sponging and the flowers. Would be fun to use for Christmas cards, or just special notes and invitations. This handle is a total replacement, and perfectly done! Same caveat as above: just hand wash! Signed: PB.
