Layered Rim Design: The edges of the plates are built in graduated levels, with sculpted separations and subtle decorative detailing, adding depth and structure to the form. Artisan French Ceramic Work: Made in France in the 1970s, these pieces reflect a period of creative ceramic design, where color experimentation and texture took center stage. Functional & Decorative: Ideal for use as serving dishes for salads, vegetables, or fruit, but equally suited as decorative centerpieces or wall-mounted ceramics. Versatile Style: Their vintage modern color scheme and textured surface make them adaptable to mid-century, rustic, Mediterranean, or even eclectic interiors. Pair Format: As a matching pair, they offer symmetry and balance to your table setting or decorative display. This pair of 1970s French ceramic dishes is a vibrant celebration of form and color, combining utility with striking design. Whether placed on a table, a console, or mounted as wall art, they bring an elegant, tactile dimension to any space.

Early 20th Century French HB Quimper Faïence Oval Wall Platter, "Noce Bretonne"
Early 20th Century French HB Quimper Faïence Oval Wall Platter, "Noce Bretonne"

Early 20th Century French HB Quimper Faïence Oval Wall Platter, "Noce Bretonne"

By Quimper Faience Pottery

Located in Dallas, TX

This charming antique wall platter was hand-painted in Brittany, France, circa 1900 by the HB Quimper workshop. Oval and scalloped in form, the tin-glazed earthenware piece features a lively and colorful scene titled "Noce Bretonne" (“Breton Wedding”), capturing the festive spirit of a traditional provincial celebration. Musicians in regional attire accompany dancing couples and onlookers, all rendered with joyful expression and vibrant costume detail. The pastoral background, dotted with trees and birds, enhances the narrative with rustic charm. The wide rim is delicately adorned with hand-painted floral sprays in warm ochre, green, and blue, framing the central composition and complementing the naturalistic palette. The reverse is signed with the classic “HB” mark, confirming its origin at the historic Grand Maison HB Quimper, a leading producer of Breton faïence since the 17th century. Quimper pottery traces its roots to 1685, when Jean-Baptiste Bousquet established a faïence workshop in the town of Quimper. Celebrated for its hand-painted scenes of Breton life, maritime themes, and floral borders, Quimper faïence became a symbol of French regional identity and craftsmanship. The HB atelier later merged with other regional makers, and the tradition continues today. Rich in cultural character and in excellent condition commensurate with age, this antique wall charger...

Antique Delft Pottery and Faience for Sale on 1stDibs

The unique graceful design and classic style of antique Delft pottery and faience make these pieces an exceptional addition to any dining room.

The popularity of the blue-and-white porcelain developed in 14th-century China inspired Delft and faience pottery in Europe. The global expansion of trade through the Dutch East India Company led to the import of numerous examples of Chinese porcelain, resulting in the creation of Dutch Delftware, which is the term generally used to describe the tin-glazed earthenware that Dutch potters used. There were other imitations of Chinese porcelain produced by ceramicists throughout Europe, but Delftware was the most successful. This iconic tradition — the subject of a 2020 exhibition at the Kunstmuseum den Haag​ ​— resembled Chinese porcelain but was more affordable.

True blue Delftware originates only from a single location: Delft in the Netherlands. These precious pieces pair well with French faience. Unlike Delft plates, Delft vases and other pieces of Delftware, French faience utilizes a lead-and-tin glaze. This earthenware has roots in late-16th-century France. French Provincial Delft and faience tend to feature snow-white lacquered surfaces with colorful painted images or floral designs.

In terms of elegance and versatility, Baroque Delft and faience always impress. The most extravagant and boldly hued pieces are Rococo Delft and faience. Plates, tureens and other objects made in this style are frequently ornate and intricately decorated, making them ideal for display. Modern Dutch design masters often incorporate vintage decor into their contemporary designs, and Delftware items are a popular choice.
