Iron Earth Soup Tureen Moulin des Loups and Hamage Athens Model

Very beautiful soup tureen on foot from the famous "moulin des loups et hamage" factory, in ironstone glazed ceramic, with a beautiful and fine green frieze decoration. It is part of the "athens" service (stamped underneath) and is about a hundred years old. It still has its lid, which is becoming quite rare. It is in good general condition, no cracks or chips, but does not hide its age and the patina that goes with it: some small marks and stains, a small chip on the handle of the lid as well as under one of the handles of the soup tureen (barely visible) and a slight pink coloring in the bottom of the soup tureen. The soup tureen measures 15 cm in height, 24 cm in height with the lid, for a diameter of 23.5 cm, and a width with the handles of 30 cm. The whole weighs approximately 2.55 kg.
