Its gently scalloped outline is covered in a warm creamy glaze and decorated by hand with a generous bouquet of flowers in a beautiful range of turquoise, cobalt and softer blue tones. The glossy enamels pool and merge in places, giving the petals an almost jewel-like depth, while fine brown lines loosely define the stems and foliage. A few small chips are visible around the rim, together with scattered firing irregularities that give the surface additional texture and character. The reverse bears a triangular C.A.P. mark. Although the workshop behind it remains little documented, the presence of this signature points to a more deliberate art-pottery production rather than anonymous utilitarian ware. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe soft cream ground and luminous blue floral decoration give the plate a fresh, almost painterly quality that feels both decorative and relaxed. Hung on a kitchen or dining-room wall, it would bring a lively note of color and a touch of French country charm, and would also sit beautifully among blue-and-white ceramics, rustic pottery, natural wood or aged copper. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 8¼\" high x 0½\" high    \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 21cm high x 1cm high  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54535887847762,"sku":"25725","price":485.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC06295_1b00d0bc-5fd4-4e50-8538-6b9677a69136.jpg?v=1788764882","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/french-art-deco-hand-painted-ceramic-plate-w-glossy-blue-floral-decoration-1930s-1950s-81-4","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
