A unique talking plate from the Coisy le Roi kiln in France, where the message on the back answers the design on the front. #FrenchAntique♧ The woman on the front, holding a wine bottle and with a wine opener hanging from her waist, is likely an innkeeper or a bistro waitress. Between her and the man, presumably a customer, hang wine bottles and grapes. Front: "Do you like wine? (Aimez-vous la bouteille?)" Back: "I'll tell you when we're alone (Je vous le dirai entre 4 yeux.)"
