Antique Small Oval Cul Noir Platter with Basket of Flowers, Rouen Area, France c.1890 A small antique oval cul noir platter in tin-glazed faience with matte manganese underside and hand-painted basket of flowers decoration. Pieces from the Rouen area combine practical pottery traditions with highly decorative hand-painted surfaces, making even modest serving pieces visually rich.
Its scale makes it especially versatile for serving, layering under smaller ceramics, or displaying upright on shelving. Originally it would have been a utilitarian kitchen item, now it is ideal for display, storage, or as a decorative piece. A beautifully authentic piece of French country history.
