PLATES AND PLATTERS

BANNETTE

11" across to handle, 7-7/8" to the up-curled sides. A superb gathering: the cockatoo perched among a melange of flowers, all spilling from a basket: the ideal summation of rustic themes first found in the 19th century. This tray, ca. 1920, is from the de la Hubaudière factory, possibly a special commission. "Guré Herria" is Basque for "Notre Pays" ("our country"); the Quimper factories produced many pieces for sale in the Basque country, and the painter's mark is unmistakable. In perfect original condition, ready for serving everything from cheeses to desserts...and a pleasure to look at on your table or sideboard.

$245, plus shipping.

PAIR OF POULTRY PLATES

9-1/2" diameter, these are wonderfully evocative of French artists of the period...Matisse, perhaps? From the HenRiot factory, ca.1923, in perfect original condition. A plump hen and her mate, a proud rooster, make a country vignette, typically French.

$250 the pair, plus shipping.

GEOMETRIC PLATE

7-1/4" diameter. Ca. 1925, from the de la Hubaudière factory, signed HB Quimper France, thus indicating it was export-ready. Bold patterns, called "à la touche", because they were created with one stroke of the paint brush, are derived from much older decors, here reassembled for a very modern effect. A rare small size, which enhances the importance of the design. In perfect condition, small but striking. 

$95, plus shipping.

SMALL WEDDING PLATTER

10" x 7-3/4", a rare small size. The best elements of the larger platters have been used to create this wonderful vignette of the Noce Bretonne. From the de la Hubaudière factory, ca. 1905, and carrying the famous #5 mark of that period. It had an age crack that our restorer has removed, and it is now in perfect condition. However, we think it best to save this for a prominent display place for show only in your collection.

$295, plus shipping.

QUIMPER SCALLOPED PLATE

8" diameter, gently scalloped. One of the endearing mother-and-child scenes, rendered in soft colors. The Encyclopédie des Céramiques de Quimper, Tome II, pp. 319-330, devotes many of these pages to plates similar to this one, a lovely survey of their output at this period: ca. 1895, from the atelier of Camille Moreau. In fine original condition.

​​$295, plus shipping.
