The glaze, with its deep moss green and earthy brown tones, mimics the organic iridescence of the sea floor, creating a sophisticated \"barbotine\" effect. These plates aren't just tableware; they are an invitation to a slow, salt-aired afternoon on the French coast. Perfectly imperfect and full of character, they embody the \"Everyday Poetry\" that turns a simple meal into a shared memory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Details \u0026amp; Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eEstimated Period:\u003c\/b\u003e mid-20th Century (c. 1950s-1960s).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e Quimper, Brittany (France).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand-painted Faience (Earthenware).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Diameter 25 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/b\u003e Excellent vintage condition.
