About the Item
A marvelous set of four individual terrines from the Poterie de Bavent, Normadie, France circa 1900-1920.
Potted and glazed by hand, each terrine includes a lid and under-plate – a coupelle, couvercle, et sous-plat.
Glazed in the rich colors of Provençal France – deep greens, yellow and ochre.
The terrines sit on a pedestal base with applied side handles. The lids fit tightly and feature a conical top knob. The deep, bowl shaped under-plates have inner rims for holding the terrine in place, and generously raised sides.
Individual terrines have many uses from serving Onion or Potato Soup Au Gratin, dips or pâtè with sliced French breads, or bouillabaisse.
Since the Middle Ages, Bavent is known for the clay that gives a rich and gorgeous coloring to terracotta pieces. The terrines are molded by hand using the same traditions that date to the mid 19th Century.
The first artisanal faÏence pottery factory in Bavent was established in 1842 by industrialist Maurice Comptet, and was named The Tuilerie du Mesnil de Bavent. It became well known for the production of tiles, pots, life-sized animals, and architectural ornaments, The Mesnil pottery of Bavent holds a French Enterprise Label of Living Heritage.

Set of Three Majolica Pieces, 19th
20th Century, Floral Hand-Painted Designs
Located in Auribeau sur Siagne, FR
Set of Three Majolica Pieces, 19th & 20th Century, Floral Hand-Painted Designs
Description:
This beautiful set of three Majolica pieces, consisting of a sugar bowl, a plate, and a small dish, is a charming blend of 19th- and 20th-century craftsmanship. The hand-painted floral motifs, featuring red flowers intertwined with brown and green branches and leaves, create a rich, organic aesthetic. While two pieces date back to the 19th century, the small dish from the 20th century complements the set with its slightly deeper green glaze, adding a harmonious contrast to the ensemble.
Key features include:
Authentic Majolica Craftsmanship: Made from glazed ceramic, these pieces exemplify the vivid, glossy finishes and delicate relief work characteristic of Majolica pottery.
Elegant Floral Decor: The intricately painted red flowers, accompanied by earthy brown branches and lush green leaves, lend a natural and timeless charm to each piece.
Harmonious Color Palette: While each item features a unique glaze, the cohesive color scheme ensures they complement one another, making them ideal for display or functional use.
Versatile Use: Perfect as a decorative set for a kitchen or dining room, these pieces can also serve a practical purpose—the sugar bowl for sweeteners, the plate for serving, and the dish for small delicacies.
Antique Patina & Glossy Finish: The natural patina and high-gloss glaze highlight the rich colors and intricate detailing, making this set a beautiful collector's item.
Historical Charm: Combining two 19th-century pieces with a 20th-century Majolica dish, this set is a wonderful representation of traditional European ceramic artistry.
This Majolica set of three is more than just tableware—it is a testament to historic craftsmanship, offering both decorative appeal and everyday functionality. Whether displayed in a classic or rustic interior or used as part of a unique kitchen setting, it adds a touch of vintage elegance and timeless artistry.
