Floral Plate with Blue & Gold Rim

This is a really nice plate made by one of the Paris makers in the early 19th century. I ahve not owned one with the cobalt blue and gold trim combo on the rim before just lots of cups and saucers so it was nice to find a plate to fit in with them. The plate is nicely hand painted with a large floral arrangement in the center including lots of different flowers and leaves and has that superb blue and gold combo to the rim I already mentioned. The plate is in great condition with some wear to the gilding along the edge and a few small spots of paint flaking in the pink rose colored in to hide them well. The piece is marked with the usual incised letters one often finds on pieces from this period and area plus a little under glaze fish looking mark often mistaken for Nyon but I am not sure what French maker used this mark. Could be Perche who worked for Rue du Petit Carrousel but also decorated wares from other makers in the period of 1795 until 1825. The plate is 1 inch tall and 8.625 inches in diameter. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $399
