Large Oval Fish Platter Gien "Pink Landscapes" 59 cm – Antique Faience Niderviller – Chic Vintage Brocante Spirit France 1950

Rare piece. Vintage from the 1940s. Dive into the charm of yesteryear's tables with this exceptional centerpiece: a very large oval serving platter (fish platter / display platter) made of fine earthenware from the prestigious Manufacture de Gien. It features the iconic "Paysages Roses" pattern (decor inspired by 18th-century productions from Niderviller). This monochrome series is distinguished by its elegant shades of purple / carmine pink, showcasing a bucolic countryside landscape in the center, surrounded by a delicate scattering of small insects (flies, butterflies, beetles) on a beautifully scalloped rim. • Brand / Origin: Faïencerie de Gien (France). Stamped on the back with the "GIEN FRANCE" mark topped with a star and engraved marks, dating from the 1940s-1950s. • Colors: Cream white and purple / wine-red decorations. Very good overall condition for a piece of this size and age. Note: the platter has a natural, uniform, and original crazing (surface cracks) in its glaze, which does not affect its sturdiness.
