Antique Deep Dish Longwy Muguet (Lily of the Valley) C

This is an antique deep plate from the Longwy Muguet (lily of the valley) series.

Deep plates create a sense of depth, giving patterns a three-dimensional feel. They also look lovely when combined with flat plates.

Lily of the valley is also known as "Kimikagesou" (shadow grass), evoking the image of a beautiful and modest woman who cherishes her loved ones and quietly watches over them from the shadows.

With its rustic and understated beauty, lily of the valley has long been famous in France as "the flower that brings happiness" and "the flower that brings happiness again." May 1st is "fête du muguet," a day to give lily of the valley to loved ones. Also, because it resembles a bride wearing a veil, it is a flower often given at weddings.

The design evokes the modest beauty of lily of the valley. The deep greenish-blue and white ceramics further enhance its elegance. Between the patterns, there is a relief of small floral motifs, adding a soft, lace-like impression to this charming series.

Craquelure, stains, and cutlery marks are visible.
