Charming plate made of ancient pottery, produced in the center of France, probably in Nevers, in the 19th century. Its hand-painted decoration illustrates a stylized blue urn, framed by two trees and topped with a flamboyant bouquet in orange tones. The rim is embellished with a yellow and blue geometric border, typical of the popular productions of the region. Beyond its naive and colorful aesthetic, this decoration has a symbolic dimension: the urn evokes beauty, memory, and abundance, the framing trees represent stability and life, and the floral flame expresses light and prosperity. These motifs, common in popular ceramics, were designed to combine decorative harmony and universal message, bridging classical heritage and artisanal expression. A beautiful authentic piece with timeless charm, ideal for wall decoration or to enrich a collection of French pottery. Dimensions: Diameter: 22 cm (8.6") Height: 3 cm (1.2") Condition: antique, with enamel cracks and slight signs of wear, without major cracks or chips. Country of manufacture: France.
