Henriot Quimper Petit Breton French Faïence Figural Plates, Set of 3
About the Item
A set of three faïence plates, Henriot Quimper, circa 1920-1925.
The plates show central sujet ordinaire images of The Petit Breton figures. Faïenceries de Quimper has been potted and hand painted in a factory near Quimper, in Brittany, France since 1708. The pottery reflects a strong traditional Breton influence and the typical design is the “Petit Breton”, a naive representation of a Breton man or woman in traditional costume.
The “Petit Breton” became popular circa 1870 and is still the main design used in newer pieces. Older Quimper faience items are strongly sought after by collectors worldwide.
Two plates are painted with the femme de la Campagne, wearing traditional dresses, each holding a flower and standing between two flowering shrubs. The two figures are glazed in different colors.
The third plate shows a Breton Garçon in the native dress, standing with a walking stick between arbustes.
Concentric blue and yellow bands make up the borders.
The molds are rustically potted.
8.75 in. Diameter x 1.5 in. High rims.
All three plates are in very good antique condition, unmarked.
