The open-work border is what stops you first — and then the flowers pull you closer. This pair of antique Old Paris plates is among the most coveted categories in French decorative porcelain, and with good reason.
- Maker: Old Paris (Vieux Paris)
- Materials: Porcelain
- Dimensions: 7.5″ diameter each
- Origin: France
- Era: Antique, 1890s–1910s
- Condition: Antique, used — very good for age. No chips, cracks, or scratches. Wear on gilding acceptable for age. Plate hanger or stand required. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
Each plate carries hand-painted florals within an ornate urn composition — different blooms on each, but complementary in spirit: hot pink, soft pink, yellow, lavender, grey, and green, with the urns painted in pastel blue and peach. The borders are fully reticulated — pierced by hand through wet clay — with gold-gilt leaves woven throughout. No two plates are alike, yet together they feel entirely intentional.
A stunning housewarming or anniversary gift, or an exceptional find for the collector of French antique porcelain.
