Vintage 80s Rouen Desvres Faience Pottery Hand Painted 14 Inch Floral Platter

Vintage 80s Rouen Desvres Faience Pottery Hand Painted 14 Inch Floral Platter This vibrant 13 3/4-inch French faience platter features a bold, handmade floral decoration. A central stylized basket of colorful blooms is framed by a dotted creamy white square, surrounded by sweeping floral and foliate motifs on a deep navy ground. Bands of geometric patterns and a distinctive stylized leaf rim add further visual interest. The reverse is marked "Fait main" and "Décor Rouen." While attributed to Rouen decoration, the lively floral style strongly suggests a connection to the faience of Desvres, a northern French pottery center known for similar designs in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This piece showcases a charming blend of regional styles within French earthenware. Width: 13 3/4 Inches Very good pre-loved vintage condition
