A lovely majolica luncheon plate covered in strawberries, leaves and bright white flowers against a pale blue background. Handpainted, there is some painting "splatter" in a few spots that are under the finish glaze. In good vintage condition--no chips, or cracks.

A rare antique from France! Made by Saint-Clement, this ceramic, decorative dish was made around 1900s.
"Saint-Clément was founded by Jacques Chambrette in 1758 and quickly became a highly respected manufacturer of earthenware and a favored supplier for Marie Antoinette. After Jacques died, his son Gabriel became the new owner, and in subsequent years the factory became owned by several shareholders. In 1892, the factory was sold to Keller and Guérin, who already owned the earthenware factory of Lunéville. Under their management, the company was considerably expanded in the last quarter of the 19th century."
