Price: $349

Antique Hand-Painted Candy Serving Dish from Rouen is a vibrantly colored, fancifully styled dish that adds visual delight to any room, regardless of whether one is serving special after-dinner treats or just using it as a decorative accent!  The naturalistic scrollwork of the design features three compartments and an undulating rim complemented by the handle shaped like the stem of a leaf and connected to the center.  The beautiful cobalt blue, copper red and rich greens are wonderfully preserved thanks to the excellent glazing techniques of the master ceramicists for which the region is known worldwide.  Note the various depictions of wildflowers native to the region, with a Romanesque urn bursting with a floral bouquet all artfully framed by intricately painted bordering.  Being hand-painted, each such work is an individual expression of art, sure to become an instant family heirloom that will be treasured for decades to come!
