AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
18th Century North Italian/French Faience Basin with Painter’s Mark.
An impressive and finely decorated large tin-glazed earthenware (faience/maiolica) deep charger or basin, dating to the 18th Century. This piece features a sophisticated "a quartieri" (sectioned) composition, centered by a vibrant radiating floral medallion.
The decoration is executed in a classic high-temperature (grand feu) palette of cobalt blue, antimony yellow/ochre, copper green, and manganese purple. A series of elegant, scalloped ochre and manganese ribbons divide the rim into six panels, each delicately painted with stylized sprigs and foliage.
The reverse features a distinct underglaze blue painter’s or workshop mark, characteristic of 18th-century European production. The back also shows the expected lead-opaque tin glaze with visible kiln pin marks and a sturdy, hand-formed footring, testifying to its authentic period manufacture.
Condition Report
Overall: Very Good antique condition.
Surface: The glaze retains a high gloss with minor age-related pitting and peppering.
Edges: Remarkable preservation; only very minor "fritting" (small glaze chips) to the rim and footring, typical of tin-glazed earthenware. No cracks or professional restoration detected.
Diameter: 31.5 cm
Height: 7 cm
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.
