Thank you for viewing! ※Final price reduction during the sale. The price will return to the original 9,000 yen on Monday, so please consider it. ⚠️The white spots visible in the photos of the bowl are due to the lighting during the photoshoot. This is an antique café au lait bowl from the "LAITIERE (Dairy Farmer)" series, made in Maastricht, Netherlands. I purchased it from an antique shop in Europe. It's a small café au lait bowl (size details below). I'm not very knowledgeable about antiques, but I'm impressed that something so fragile has survived for over 100 years. In my amateur opinion, the condition is very good considering its age. While you occasionally see LAITIERE pieces from the same Maastricht kiln with red or blue illustrations, this glossy brown lusterware is quite rare, I believe. It shines beautifully when held up to the light. ◉ Antique Café Au Lait Bowl LAITIERE, Made in Maastricht, Netherlands Societe Ceramique Maestricht Price: ¥11,800 (including tax) + shipping ● There are small manufacturing irregularities typical of antique ceramics. ● I did not find any chips or cracks. ● Size: Diameter 9.8cm X Height 5.5cm ● Era: Around 1890s-1920s ● Crazing: Present in about 10% of the surface (→ Crazing is a condition of the surface glaze that occurred during manufacturing or over time and is not damage (cracks).) The above information is from the shop where I purchased it. I became interested in antiques after purchasing this café au lait bowl, but I feel it's beyond my ability to care for, so I've decided to sell it. I hope that those who are familiar with antique tableware and雑貨, know how to care for them, or are collectors will purchase it. I will carefully wrap it, take waterproof measures, and ship it via the Rakuraku Mercari courier service (Takkyubin). Thank you for your consideration. #Antique #Antique雑貨 #European雑貨 #EuropeanAntique #Vintage #Vintage雑貨 #AntiqueTableware #CafeAuLaitBowl #Netherlands #Maastricht #Tableware #LAITIERE
