Early 20th Century French Palissy Majolica Platter with Snake, Frog, and Shells
By Bernard Palissy
Located in Dallas, TX
Alive with texture, color, and movement, this early 20th-century French Palissy-style majolica platter brings the natural world to life in vivid relief. At the center, a coiled snake winds through a vibrant marsh, surrounded by frogs, newts, snails, and scattered shells. Glossy glazes in deep green, golden ochre, and cobalt blue add a sense of depth and dampness, while the high-relief modeling invites both touch and close inspection.
Evoking the spirit of Bernard Palissy and the rustic naturalism of 19th-century revivalists, this hand-modeled ceramic piece is more than a decorative dish, it’s a sculptural landscape. The reverse reveals a warm, mottled terracotta finish, grounding the piece in its artisanal origins.
Whether placed on a console, set into a cabinet, or mounted on a wall, this antique French platter...
