Impressive and finely executed faience centerpiece produced by H.B. Choisy-le-Roi, France, during the Napoleon III period, circa 1880. The piece is distinguished by its deep cobalt blue ground, richly decorated with hand-painted floral and foliate motifs, enhanced by extensive, carefully applied gilt detailing, characteristic of high-quality French decorative arts of the late 19th century. The elegant low oval form and refined decorative program clearly identify the object as a table centerpiece, intended to enrich formal dining or salon interiors. The quality of the painting, depth and brilliance of the cobalt glaze, and the controlled use of gilding reflect the advanced technical and artistic standards of Choisy-le-Roi during this period.
