French Quimper faience sauce boat with Breton figure

A characterful piece of French Quimper faience, hand painted in the traditional Breton style with a central figure and lively border detailing. We love this sort of piece for adding instant colour and story to a kitchen or dining room, whether you use it for serving or simply as a display accent.

It has a lovely sculptural silhouette with its raised bowl, sweeping spout, and pedestal base. Style it on open shelving with blue and white ceramics, or pop it on a dresser beside cookbooks and a small vase of flowers for an easy French farmhouse feel. It also looks brilliant hung on the wall as part of a collected wall display with plates and serving pieces.

Measures 19 x 15 x 8 cm.
