Saint-Amand ironstone dinner plate with anemone green decoration

A very pretty earthenware plate, known as "ironstone, " with a delicate floral design in a beautiful green color with a slight blue tint. This is the "anemone" pattern offered by the Saint-Amand factory – a company based in Saint-Amand – at the very beginning of the 20th century. The "Saint-Amand company" was founded in 1900 and became "Manufacture du Moulin des Loups-Hamage" in 1923 after merging with other establishments within the same group. It is in good structural condition, with no cracks, but it bears numerous marks that attest to its age and use: scratches, stains, dents, and chips. It is therefore best suited for decorative use or for a collection, where it will remain a historical artifact for decades to come without deteriorating further. It measures 22 cm in diameter with a maximum height of 2 cm at the rim.
