Let a Plate tell you a Story!




French transferware plates were quite often an editorial commentary as well as a look into the lives of both royalty and common folk! Whether the theme is about political issues, sporting, or society, each plate depicts a charming caricature of the era.
The story is told in traditionally black on creamy white with a decorative and one color border of various designs. Popularly manufactured by factories such as Luneville, Choisy and Sarregumines .These historical pottery plates date back to late 1800's to the early 1900's.They generally measure in sizes of 6 to 10 inches across.
Whether you choose a pair or an entire collection, these delightful plates make a wonderful decorative addition to any room! Be sure to visit the Chateau for a wonderful variety of plates offered! www.myfrenchchateau.com
