French Porcelain Octagonal Hand-Painted Oyster Plate, c.1890

About the Item

A French porcelain oyster plate, circa 1890-1910. Octagonal in shape and glazed in a lovely soft turquoise, the five oyster wells sit on a bed of stylized coral or sea weed. The white shells are tipped in bright pink and have hand-painted ‘eyes’. The shells meet in the center in a mass of seaweed. Gorgeous color! Dimensional mold work. Book Reference: Oyster Plates, Karsnitz, pg. 81 8.5 inches in diameter x 1.25 inches high. Marked with impressed mold numbers and the red oxide painters number. Very good antique condition. Minor paint loss to the high points in the center, nothing to detract.
