Description

Quimper pottery is named after the French town where it was originally produced, back in c1690.
It is a hand painted tin glazed earthenware pottery.

This pair of small dishes is of a man and a woman dressed in Breton costume of that early 17th-18th century period. However the style of the hand painted back markings date these pieces to mid 20th century - c1943-70.

Each dish measures approximately 8 cm (3.2") in diameter and is 1.2 cm (.5") deep.

The dishes are in very good condition, with no chips or cracks noted. There is some light crazing to the glaze.
