About the Item

A stunning Large French majolica wall platter, late 19th century, with high relief decoration of colored apples dangling from a vine. At the end of the 19th century, Longchamp and Fives-Lille produced fruits platters of all kinds in a range of four sizes. The story of the majolica of Fives-Lille begins which Antione Gustave De Bruyn, a fourth generation potter from Belgium. In 1864 he left Belgium and moved to Fives-Lille, a community in the northern part of France to make his fortune in the French pottery trade. He began by building his own factory for the production of clay pipes and whistles. Soon the business was expanded to include earthenware and stoneware for daily use. Art pottery and the newly popular majolica were incorporated into the company's catalog in 1887. Soon majolica became the body of choice for the production of humidors, jardinières, vases and umbrella stands. The company's silver medal at the Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1889, was a testament to its success. A fine example of European artistry of the 19th century to display on your wall in your dining room, keeping room, living room, or even bedroom. Detailed and colorful they'll be a centerpiece wherever you hang them.
