This is a large, deep dish, or saladier, from the popular "fontanges" series by Sarreguemines, a French antique. I found it at a Parisian brocante. The red-painted wildflowers, perhaps ranunculus and lily of the valley, are beautiful. This rare plate would be perfect as a large serving dish for the party season. It would also be lovely as an interior decoration, even just to hold things. ・Condition Light crazing, with little sign of use. There are no chips, cracks, or noticeable stains, and the condition is very good. There may be some print smudges, specks, or kiln marks. ・Brand: Sarreguemines/U&C Sarreguemines (France) ・Series: fontanges ・Size: Approximately 26cm in diameter, 5cm in height ・As with all antiques and vintage items, there may be kiln marks, tiny chips, crazing, scratches, stains, ink smudges, faded patterns, and imperfections due to use. ・Crazing may become more visible when washed with water, but will disappear when dry (a typical characteristic of antique plates). ・Photos taken with an iPhone, in natural light, with no editing. There may be scratches typical of antiques and vintage items that are not fully captured in the photos. The color may appear different depending on the device.
