Octagonal blue dessert plate from the late 19th century in earthenware.

Charming antique dessert plate made of fine earthenware with a blue printed design on a white background, in an octagonal shape. Its elegant floral decoration and crowned stamp on the back give it all the charm of late 19th-century productions. The stamp bears the mention "Manufacture Impériale Royale" as well as a cartouche that may suggest the Nimy factory (Belgium). The identification remains to be confirmed, which adds to the interest of this piece. Estimated period: late 19th century (circa 1880-1900). Condition: very good presentation condition. Notable: a small chip on the back, invisible from the front, with no impact on its aesthetics. This plate will fit perfectly in a chic country decor, an antique earthenware collection, or a plate wall.
