{"product_id":"vintage-style-green-pottery-plates-french-country-dining","title":"Antique French Green Glazed Earthenware Plates | Set of Five | Late 19th to Early 20th Century","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis set of five antique French green glazed plates is exactly the kind of brocante find that makes you glad you got up early and drove out into the countryside. Each plate was wheel thrown in terre vernissée (glazed earthenware) and finished in a deep emerald green glaze with the darker speckling and tonal variation that comes from old wood fired kilns. Likely southern French, dating to the late 19th or early 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glaze on these is fantastic. Deep green shifting almost to black toward the centers, with warm terracotta showing through around the rims where decades of handling softened the edges. There are a few small chips and one larger chip underneath one plate, all completely consistent with real use over the last hundred years. They are weighty too... the way old country pottery should feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are the kinds of plates that instantly change the mood of a table. Salade niçoise, a wedge of cheese with crusty bread, roasted figs in late summer... they make simple food look even better. Stacked on a shelf, the color alone carries so much warmth and southern French character. These are a delightful addition to any home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52432159703383,"sku":"TWE-007","price":675.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/vintage-style-green-pottery-plates-french-country-dining-2.jpg?v=1767093887","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/products\/vintage-style-green-pottery-plates-french-country-dining","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
