19th Century Faience Soup Tureen with Lid & Platter, Hand-Painted

About the Item

This stunning antique French soup tureen is a true masterpiece of 19th-century faience craftsmanship. Complete with its original lid and underplate, the set is richly adorned with hand-painted floral motifs in delicate tones of magenta, green, blue, and lilac. The piece showcases remarkable artistry, with every detail—from the blooming roses and wildflowers to the whimsical butterflies—painstakingly rendered by hand. The tureen stands on four curved legs, each embellished with deep magenta highlights that match the elegant contours of the handles and scalloped lid edges. The lid itself is crowned by a naturalistic branch-shaped handle, sculpted and painted to resemble intertwined wood and adorned with charming ceramic fruits and leaves. Perfect as a decorative centerpiece or for use in elegant dining, this piece speaks to the refined taste and sophisticated craftsmanship of French ceramic tradition. The matching platter mirrors the floral decoration and is shaped to nest the tureen securely. In excellent antique condition with only minor wear consistent with age, this piece would make an extraordinary addition to any faience or antique dinnerware collection.
