Description

Henriot Quimper Ceramic Hot Plate/Cheese Tray Breton Peasant. Hand-painted French faïence trivet/cheese tray from the celebrated Henriot Quimper pottery in Brittany, France. The center depicts a traditionally dressed Breton peasant woman surrounded by the classic folk-art florals in orange, blue, and green that the region is known for. Finished with the signature concentric blue stripe border and bold yellow rim. Sturdy enough to use as a functional cheese board or serving tray, though beautiful enough to display on its own. Each piece was painted entirely by hand, so no two are exactly alike — that's part of what makes Quimper pieces so collectible.
