Vintage Plate Salins Messidor D

This is a vintage dinner plate from the Sarreguemines Messidor series.

Manufactured between 1950 and 1960, this series is characterized by its charming hand-painted, gentle aesthetic.

The rim is rhythmic and soft, like flower petals, and is accentuated by a crimson border that creates a subtle tension.

The wheat ears and flowers are vividly depicted, conveying the joy of harvest.

The deep, purplish-red color is subdued and mature, so despite the large pattern, it doesn't overpower but rather harmonizes beautifully.

It's a lovely plate that you'll want to display like a painting.

The stamp on the back reads "E.C.," which is believed to be an abbreviation for Edouard Charbonnier. Edouard Charbonnier was the son of Robert Charbonnier of the Longchamp pottery and served as president of the Sarreguemines pottery from 1912 to 1968.

There is crazing spread throughout, and some scattered stain-like spots. There are no chips or cracks, and few cutlery marks.

Size: Diameter 24.5cm x Height 2cm
