Paris - 8.5” Antique 1880 French Majolica Floral Plate

A charming French-style majolica plate featuring a beautifully detailed floral design in rich shades of plum purple, leafy green, and soft turquoise.

Four sculptural flowers with golden-yellow centers surround the plate, their raised petals and winding stems creating wonderful texture and dimension. The pale aqua-green background is decorated with delicate fern-like foliage, giving the piece an elegant botanical character.

The combination of vibrant glazes, dimensional flowers, and organic detailing makes this a lovely example of decorative majolica pottery.

Beautiful displayed on a wall, layered into a collection of antique plates, or styled on open shelving, this piece brings color, artistry, and French country charm to any space.
