Set of 6 french onnaing barbonite ceramic plates and cake plate with foot made of french majolica and numbered from the late 19th century decorated with strawberries, white flowers, brown, blue and green leaves. Made using the barbotine technique, this plate epitomizes the majolica style with its vibrant color palette and intricate detailing. A delight to the eye, the design of the plate is a living painting of nature. An elegant display of strawberries is complemented by delicate white flowers and a variety of leaves in varying shades of brown, blue and green, creating a harmonious blend of colors and textures that is truly captivating. The detailing of this plate exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship inherent in the engobe technique, which involves using liquid clay to create detailed relief designs. Every element of the design, from the honeycomb texture of the strawberries to the subtle veining of the leaves, has been rendered with precision. Ideal for serving a dessert or a cake, an art nouveau handcrafted marvel. It is in perfect condition.
