Antique Longwy Les Eglantines Compote Dish

A beautifully patinated antique terre de fer compote dish, which complements the teal blue transferware border on this piece perfectly.

Raised on a small footed stand, this terre de fer cake plate is perfect both for display and use. It has a mark for Longwy on its base and is in the popular teal blue coloured Les Eglantines pattern, with a floral garland sweeping its way around the outside of the dish.

This compotier has been well used, and therefore has a richly patinated and buttery coloured top plate. There are no cracks or chips and the teal colouring is still deep and rich in colour.
