Vintage Deep Plate, Saran, Messidor C

This is a deep plate from the vintage Salins Messidor series.

Produced between 1950 and 1960, this series is charming with its hand-painted, gentle aesthetic.

The rim is rhythmic and soft, like flower petals. A deep crimson border highlights its lines, creating a pleasing sense of tension.

Ears of wheat 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 wonderful plate that you'll want to display like a painting.

The stamp on the back reads "E.C.", which is thought 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 Salins pottery from 1912 to 1968.

There is some crazing, but it is minor. It is in very good condition with no chips or cracks and little sign of use.
