A charming antique French faience plate featuring delicate hand-painted cobalt floral sprigs against a soft white tin-glazed background. The gently scalloped rim and beautifully imperfect form speak to its provincial craftsmanship and centuries of use. Lovely displayed layered into a wall collection or mixed into an old-world tabletop.
