Workshop: Royal Ceram Royal Ceram AUNEAU street plate ♦︎ Rue Marceau Marceau Street. Named after François Séverin Marceau, a general during the French Revolution. This is a local fève in the shape of a street sign plate, recreating the name of a street that actually exists in the French town of "AUNEAU". Auneau is a small town in north-central France, near Chartres (currently Auneau-Bleury-Saint-Symphorien), and is an area where pottery workshops, such as fèves, are dotted around, despite being a rural town. The Royal Ceram workshop is also located in this vicinity. This "blue background with white frame + white letters" design is a traditional French street sign (rue plaque) style, especially common in Paris and other old urban areas. ・Basically an enamel-style ceramic plate (although many are actually made of metal) The blue background with a white frame indicates that it is an "official street in the city management area" and is often attached directly to the walls of buildings. As a design that symbolizes French-ness, it is very well-known and is said to be a popular design among tourists. (The origin of the street name is briefly described, but please read it as a reference only♪) ✴︎Royal Ceram✴︎ A workshop established in 2001 in Quincy-Voisins by ceramist Olivier Chalvet.
