AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A vibrant example of French artisan craftsmanship from the world-renowned Faïencerie de Longwy.
This stunning shallow bowl (coupe) features the iconic hand-decorated "cloisonné" enamel technique that has made Longwy a favorite among collectors for over a century. The interior showcases a vivid Mid-Century floral motif (Décor 5685), with stylized coral and violet blossoms set against a deep cobalt blue ground. The exterior is finished in Longwy's signature turquoise crackle glaze, providing a beautiful contrast.
Key Features:
Origin: Hand-crafted in Longwy, France.
Period: Mid-20th Century (Circa 1945–1960).
Technique: Authentic "Émaux de Longwy" (cloisonné on ceramic), featuring raised enamels and a fine crackle finish.
Dimensions: Diameter: 13 cm | Height: 3.2 cm.
Condition Report:
Very Good Vintage Condition. The enamel remains vibrant and glossy with no significant chips, cracks, or restorations. The crackle glaze is clean and the "cernes" (black outlines) are crisp. A superb cabinet piece for any collector of fine French ceramics or Mid-Century Modern decor.
Your item will be carefully packaged and shipped with full track and trace for your peace of mind; local pickup is also warmly welcomed in Ekeren (Antwerp), Belgium.
