About the Item
Decorate a wall or bookcase with this colorful Limoges porcelain wall platter. Crafted in France circa 1809 and round in form, the decorative piece features a beautifully hand-painted scene of birds drinking along a riverbank set within a lush, idyllic landscape. The birds and surrounding foliage are rendered in an expressive, painterly style, while a band of gilded decoration encircles the rim for a refined touch. Signed on the back J. Pouyat Limoges, the classic porcelain platter remains in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, displaying rich, vivid colors and a refined surface quality often associated with early Limoges production. This distinctive, historic piece offers an elegant pop of color in any traditional or contemporary setting.
The Pouyat family played a significant role in shaping Limoges porcelain. François Pouyat (1754–1838), whose clayworks and deposits were among the finest in Haute-Vienne, partnered with the Locre factory in Paris in 1800 and guided production until 1808. His sons—Jean-Baptiste, Léonard, and Jean Pouyat-Duvignaud—continued expanding the family’s influence. Throughout the 19th century, successive generations oversaw multiple workshops in Limoges and Paris, producing porcelain celebrated for its exceptional whiteness, fine texture, and artistic decoration. By the mid-1800s, the Pouyat factories employed over 120 workers and collaborated with notable designers such as P. Comolera. The enterprise later evolved through partnerships and acquisitions before ultimately being purchased by W. Guerin in 1911, marking the end of a pivotal chapter in Limoges porcelain history.

19th Century French Hand Painted Ceramic Duck Wall Platter Stamped J. Massier
By Jerome Massier Fils
Located in Dallas, TX
This elegant Majolica platter was created in Southern France by Massier, circa 1890. Round in shape, the antique ceramic plate is beautifully hand painted featuring a standing duck in a barn. The planter is in excellent condition with rich colors in the beige, green and white palette. The piece is stamped on the bottom Jerome Massier Fils, Vallauris, Pierre Perret. Hook in the back for easy installation.
The Massier family of Vallauris is recognized for three members producing Majolica in the second half of the 19th century. In 1860, brothers Delphin (1836-1907) and Clement (1844-1917) Massier were joined by cousin Jerome Massier (1850-1916) and began producing a style of ceramic bridging between traditional Victorian Majolica and Art Nouveau pottery. The Massiers mastered the copper oxide flambé technique for glazing, thereby introducing an intensely vibrant color palette including red, green and blue hues not previously seen with English Majolica.
Important in the Massier production were a series of large naturalistic modeled figural roosters, hens and other birds. Vases and wall pockets styled as orchids, intensely colored irises and sunflowers are among the most common Massier styles. A variety of humorous pieces bearing frogs and songbirds are popular among collectors. Most Massier Majolica bears...
