{"product_id":"dieulefit-green-glazed-melon-plate-terre-de-provence","title":"Antique French Ceramic Melon Dish | Dieulefit | Mid 20th Century","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe color is incredible on this vintage ceramic melon dish... the emerald green glaze is simply stunning. Dieulefit potters have been working clay in the Drôme Provençale for generations, and every now and then a glaze comes along that seems to capture the landscape around them.  Made by Terre et Provence, it likely dates to the mid 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shape is every bit as appealing as the glaze. Ten deep ribs radiate outward from a small central well to a softly undulating rim, creating a dish that was designed to cradle slices of melon, peaches, deviled eggs, and other delightful appetizers. It's the perfect dish for an apéro or goûter. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePicture this sitting in the middle of a table at a long summer lunch, filled with apricots from the market in Apt or figs picked that morning from the garden. And when the table is cleared, it looks just as good sitting on the counter. Some items bring a little Provence into a room. This one seems to bring an entire season with it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52502511550807,"sku":"CER-096","price":235.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/dieulefit-green-glazed-melon-plate-terre-de-provence-2.jpg?v=1767963201","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/products\/dieulefit-green-glazed-melon-plate-terre-de-provence","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
