A nice example of a vintage oval shaped antique French breadboard or bread platter with a deeply carved motto, dating from the mid 20th Century, with a "Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread" motto in French.
This oval bread plate stands out with its rich colouring and nicely carved details. The carving of the motto is very clear and crisp still, and each side of the board has nice detailing of a wheat ear.
The motto is the French equivalent of Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread. It reads, “Donnez Nous Notre Pain Quotidien”. The signature of the carver is also evident in the bottom right corner.
This is a heavy and solid piece. There is some light wear from use, plus some odd sections of discolouration, which is most notable under the 'Notre' part of the board. Otherwise, though, this board is in very good condition. It would make a very decorative feature when not in use.
Length, 44cm; Width, 21.5cm; Height, 3.5cm
