AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare set of 9 hors d'oeuvre compartment plates. Gien. France. 1960s–70s.
Description
This is mindful dining.
Not fast. Not fleeting.
Nine original GIEN compartment boards. Made in a period when form and function were closely aligned. Each board is logically divided. Clean lines. Clear planes. Everything has its own place. Olives. Nuts. Cheese. Citrus. No overlap. No clutter.
The glaze is warm mustard yellow to honey brown. Deep. Lively. With visible nuances on each plate. The surface shows natural craquelure. Exactly what you’re looking for in French faience from this period. No smooth perfection. Rather, character and age.
These boards belong on long tables. With conversations that run long. With good light. With time.

Seller's Story
We are Mies and Nuno from Cherry Picking. Crazy about items with character and a soul. What started as a shared love for vintage has grown into a mission: to rescue forgotten pearls from oblivion and give them a second life. From distinctive furniture to stylish finds — everything is carefully selected, refurbished, and offered with a wink. Not perfect, but just right. We scour, search, select, and pass on. Why buy new when it can be more beautiful and sustainable? Cherry Picking stands for: • Vintage with a story • Sustainable, quirky, and stylish • Selected with heart and eye. Our style? Retro with an edge. Think: a touch of Hollywood Regency, a hint of brocante, and always with flair. Everything too beautiful to leave behind ends up here.
