Paris - 9.5” Antique 1890 French Majolica Artichoke & Asparagus Plate

Antique French Majolica Artichoke & Asparagus Plate – Barbotine Pottery | 9.5”

A beautiful example of French majolica pottery, this antique decorative plate features an intricate botanical design of artichokes and asparagus, sculpted in raised relief and finished in soft shades of sage green, turquoise blue, deep aubergine, and warm honey yellow.

The wonderfully detailed vegetables and foliage frame the softly glazed center, creating a striking combination of texture, color, and dimension. The naturalistic design reflects the artistry of traditional French barbotine pottery, celebrated for its richly detailed botanical and garden-inspired motifs.

A charming addition to a French country kitchen, this decorative plate is beautiful displayed on a wall, layered into a collection of antique ceramics, or styled on open shelving.
