LATE 18TH- EARLY 19TH CENTURY ANTIQUE FRENCH QUIMPER HAND DECORATED FIGURATIVE. Early French antique decorated ceramic art. 8″ in Diameter x 1 ¾ ” Height. Offered for your review and careful consideration is this absolutely authentic and original late 18th to early 19th century antique French Quimper, wheel thrown, hand decorated, figurative ceramic bowl, featuring a long tailed, brightly colored, gold, blue and olive spotted swift or swallow in mid-flight, with its wings outstretched and legs following behind and a sill decorated with flowers. This particular period antique French Quimper ceramic bowl was one of four antique Quimper bowls found in a greater Boston, Massachusetts estate, where the female owner was of Belgian descent who spoke Flemish and only relocated to the United States after marrying an American citizen at the end of the Second World War, with her American husband serving in the US Armed Forces in the epic international struggle against German fascism. This antique bowl hung in their Arlington, Massachusetts’ home for over 50 years and was never removed from the nail upon which it hung on the wall of the kitchen of their well-appointed Arts & Crafts period home. The bowl’s age and antique pedigree is vetted and authentic and custodial provenance is available if requested. The bowl remains untouched, unadulterated and unmolested. This antique French Quimper decorated ceramic figurative bowl is from the collection of a Belgian woman who lived with the bowls in her family’s home in Antwerp, Belgian, only to take them and all of her Flemish European furniture with her when she relocated and moved to the United States of America. It is unusual to find not only one but four of these over two-hundred year old, late 18th century bowls here in a single estate in the United States. It is with real enthusiasm and excitement that I have the opportunity to offer this and the other three comparable French Quimper ceramic bowls for sale to the public now. Gorgeous and with wonderful figurative drawing on the bowl’s basin and rim. Simply magnificent and very rare. Very Good to Excellent overall vintage condition.
