Description from the seller

Antique Quimper ceramic double figure – Breton woman with two bowls (c. 1900–1930)

Decorative double ceramic figure from Brittany (France), depicting a Breton woman in traditional dress with a coiffe (headpiece), who carries two separate bowls, one in each hand. This type of object was used as a double bonbonnière, a salt-and-pepper holder, or a presentation piece.

Hand-painted in typical Quimper colors (blue, green and yellow), with flower motifs on the dress and a green pointed base. The naive style, design, and glaze are characteristic of the Quimper / Henriot–HB tradition from the early 20th century.
