Paris - 9.5” 1890 Majolica Morning Glory Plate Wasmuel

A vibrant antique majolica (barbotine) plate featuring a richly detailed floral motif in raised relief.

This piece showcases the artistry of late 19th-century ceramics, with hand-applied slip decoration creating dimension across the surface. The design features blooming flowers in shades of deep blue, soft lavender, and green, set against a textured background with a decorative geometric border.

Majolica plates like this were both functional and decorative—today they make striking statement pieces on a wall, layered into a collection, or styled on a table.
