Vintage French Faïence Dish in Yellow with Blue Floral Motif

Bring a splash of sunshine to your table or wall with this beautifully hand-painted French faïence dish. Glazed in a rich, joyful yellow with delicate blue florals and leafy green stems, it’s a piece that radiates warmth and charm. The scalloped edge adds a soft, decorative touch, while the folk-art style painting speaks to the rustic tradition of southern French pottery.

Measuring 27 cm in diameter, it’s the ideal size for serving, layering into a gallery wall, or simply displaying on a dresser or shelf. This plate is as versatile as it is decorative, whether used for fruit, bread, or hung as part of a colourful vintage arrangement.

The style and glaze are typical of mid-century French faïence, known for its cheerful colour palette and tactile character. The overall condition is very good for its age, with minor signs of wear that only enhance its appeal.

If you love joyful colour, expressive hand-painted details, and one-off vintage pieces with soul, this plate will sit beautifully in your home. Pair it with rustic wood, natural linens or contrast it with bold modern glassware for a striking tabletop display.
