Description :

This delightful set of French majolica tableware was produced by the celebrated Saint-Clément faience manufactory during the late 19th-century. The set comprises five dessert plates and a matching serving platter, all richly decorated in relief with an abundance of fruit and foliage inspired by nature.

Each dessert plate features clusters of ripe peaches framed by finely molded leaves, while the larger serving platter displays an attractive arrangement of peaches, strawberries, cherries, grapes, and flowering branches. The soft palette of creamy whites, greens, pinks, and golden yellows is enhanced by a lustrous glaze, creating the vibrant and highly decorative appearance that made French barbotine ceramics so popular during the Victorian era.

Founded in Lorraine in the 18th-century, the Saint-Clément manufactory became particularly renowned for its majolica wares, producing richly modeled pieces inspired by fruits, vegetables, flowers, and natural forms. These charming creations remain highly sought after today by collectors of French faience and majolica.

This service beautifully captures the artistic spirit of late 19th-century French decorative ceramics and would make a wonderful addition to a majolica collection, a country house interior, or an elegant dining display.

Presented in good antique condition with age-appropriate wear consistent with use and age.
