Creil Polychrome Transferware French Revolution Gallic Marins Sailor Plate

About the Item

An early 19th century French transfer printed creamware plate, with polychrome hand painting, showing the mark for the Creil factory. The central image shows two French Revolution Era sailors, at ease on the wharf with tall sailing ships in the background. A border of Gallic roosters, le coq gaulois, an unofficial national symbol of France, alternates with cartouches showing musical instruments, weaponry and French flags or banners. Bright painting in the colors of the French flag. “Marins” translates to Sailors, is printed beneath the main image. Perfect for the beach house, a young boys room, or any nautical enthusiast. The Creil factory was the first French pottery to use transfer printing on earthenware, reproducing engravings of different topics. The company later became “Creil and Montereau Faïenceries” under the name Lebeuf, Milliet & Co. (LM & Co.) until 1876. Measures: 8 in. diameter x .75 in. height Very good antique condition, the expected surface wear to the verso. An old, hand written sale tag on the verso.
