About
Bring a touch of Brittany’s rich folk tradition into your home with this charming antique Henriot Quimper faïence plaque, crafted in France circa 1904–1922. Hand-painted in vivid polychrome enamels, the oval ceramic platter depicts a lively Breton couple dancing in traditional regional costume, capturing the movement, warmth, and joyful spirit associated with Quimper pottery. The animated scene is framed by an elegant cobalt blue border richly decorated with scrolling floral and rosette motifs accented with fine ochre detailing.
At the crest, the plaque is adorned with the heraldic arms of Quimper, featuring two gilded lions flanking a crowned shield, adding a refined decorative element and strong regional identity. The reverse bears the painted “HR” mark for Henriot Quimper, one of the most celebrated faïence manufactories in France, renowned for its hand-painted Breton subjects and centuries-old ceramic tradition.
The wall decor retains beautiful depth of color and a soft glazed surface with desirable signs of age and handcraftsmanship throughout. A wonderful decorative accent for a kitchen, breakfast room, or wall gallery, this antique Quimper plaque brings authentic French provincial charm and collected character to any interior.
