1890's French Pottery "Birds & Flowers". This listing is for a beautiful set of 6 antique pottery asparagus plates.
Made by Longwy in France, ca. 1890 and decorated with the "oiseaux fleurs" pattern (birds and flowers). These are transfer printed in a dark greenish blue and each plate measures approx. 10-3/8 across (26,3 cm). In general these plates are in excellent condition.
There is slight wear from age and use and some minor chips and glaze loss along the edges (see last close-up pictures). But really that is not too detracting and there are no cracks or hairlines and no repairs/restoration. Please excuse any glares (white patches) that you may see in the pictures, these are caused by reflections of light on the glaze and are not on the actual object itself.
