Villeroy & Boch - Bowl - Ginger Cake & Cookies - Earthenware, Enamel

This charming covered bowl signed Villeroy & Boch, from the festive Ginger Cake & Cookies collection, is a decorative and functional piece inspired by the world of Christmas cookies. Produced around the early 2000s, this line is characterized by its warm decorations reminiscent of gingerbread, traditional toys, and the sweet aesthetic of winter markets. The example presented here, kept in strictly new condition, makes an attractive piece for the table as well as seasonal decoration.

The lid is the most expressive part of the set: a broad, domed surface decorated with childish scenes and gingerbread figures, rendered in a palette of browns, reds, and beiges reminiscent of sweet icing. The handle, shaped like a Christmas tree, has a biscuit-like appearance painted with small red dots. The upper edge of the lid features a caramel-colored decoration with a festooned pattern, like icing delicately flowing over the sides. The basin, flared and accented with a red trim on the wing, adopts a more geometric design composed of stylized flowers, hearts, and circular motifs reminiscent of the simple shapes of traditional pastries. The combination of cream white, red, and beige creates a soft, warm effect, faithful to the collection's theme.

The item is in brand new condition, showing no signs of use or structural defects: the varnish is glossy and uniform, and the decorations are perfectly clear. The bowl still bears its original sales label, including the barcode and model number, confirming it has never been put into service. The lid and bowl fit together perfectly, demonstrating the quality of contemporary craftsmanship of the house.

According to the label and reference number (14-5528-4520), this piece specifically belongs to the Ginger Cake & Cookies line, marketed by Villeroy & Boch for their seasonal year-end collections. Models in this range were produced in decorated porcelain at licensed workshops in China, as indicated on the back, following the brand's quality standards. Nonetheless, the object remains a graphic creation entirely developed by Villeroy & Boch, intended to complement the festive table universe initiated by their Christmas collections with a traditional character.

Founded in 1748, Villeroy & Boch is one of the oldest European manufacturers still in operation, with its historic headquarters located in Mettlach, Germany. Renowned for the quality of its porcelains, faience, and decorative services, the company has distinguished itself over time by its ability to blend artisanal heritage with contemporary design. The Christmas collections, in particular, have become a cornerstone of its modern identity, combining traditional motifs, narrative warmth, and refined decorative execution. This covered bowl fully embodies this festive tradition that has earned the manufacturer international fame.
