Description from the seller
Émaux de Longwy – Large decorative platter / decorative plate – Polychrome floral decoration – Decoration 5900, form 1641 – Handmade – France
Very beautiful decorative platter in Émaux de Longwy, entirely hand-decorated according to the famous cloisonné enamel technique of the manufactory.
The piece features a rich polychrome floral decoration on a superb intense turquoise blue background. The composition consists of a multitude of flowers and foliage in bright colors, surrounding a central ivory medallion adorned with large flowers in orange, yellow, blue and green tones.
The back is also enameled with a pretty turquoise blue and bears the manufacture’s mark:
“Hand decorated – Émaux de Longwy – France”
Also noted:
- Shape: 1641
- Decoration: 5900
- Mention “Rehaussé main” accompanied by the decorator’s initials
- Mention “Made in France”
The piece has its old metal hanging system allowing it to be displayed directly on the wall.
Very high quality of execution, with the dark outlines characteristic of genuine Longwy enamels and a particularly luminous palette.
Condition: very good overall condition. No chips, cracks, or crazing to report. Slight signs of wear or aging may be present, in keeping with the age of the piece. The photographs are an integral part of the description.
