Vintage deep plate, Saran, Messidor F
This is a deep plate from Sarreguemines' vintage Messidor series.
Produced between 1950 and 1960, its charming hand-painted, gentle aesthetic is captivating.
The rim is rhythmic and soft, like flower petals. A deep crimson border highlights this line, creating a suitable 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 and 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 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 Sarreguemines pottery from 1912 to 1968.
There is no crazing. There are no chips or cracks, and it's in very good condition with little signs of use.
