Paris - 8” 1890 Antique French Majolica Plate

A beautifully sculptural antique French majolica (barbotine) plate dating to the late 19th century, featuring a richly detailed raised floral design in layered tones of turquoise, sage green, ochre, and deep blue.

The symmetrical composition is anchored by a central floral medallion, surrounded by petal-like forms and a distinctive basketweave border—hallmarks of northern French faience workshops of the period. The dimensional glazing and bold color palette create depth and movement, making this piece especially striking when layered into a plate wall or displayed on open shelving.

Sourced in France and chosen for its texture, color, and ability to mix effortlessly with other antique ceramics.
