Lovely 1870s French Porcelain Covered Vegetable Dish Ernie Du Bac Paris
Regular price
$196.00
Presented is a lovely French porcelain covered vegetable dish from the 1870s. This piece displays a gorgeous orange and gold pattern with classic French scroll and leafy details around the base and lid of the piece. The handles shows an interesting interwoven design. The design seemed to have an applied darker orange border with the light orange being hand painted. On both sides of the base of the dish, there is a stylized monogram, a W and T, interwoven, made up of the orange style decorations and pink roses to make up the letters.
The underside of the dish is marked with the initials “E.C.” on a raised plaque for the maker. The “E” likely for “Ernie Du Bac Paris” as this is the mark we see in the plates and bowls we have in the same pattern. We have other pieces in this pattern. We encourage you to view our page or reach out if you are interested in more of this collection.
The covered dish is in good overall condition. As seen in the photos, there is some significant loss to the gilded edge and gilding on the handles. The orange decorations are mostly still well-defined. There are no breaks or chips in the porcelain, and no repairs.
Measurements: 11 3/4 inches across from handle to handle 8 1/2 inches in diameter 6 inches tall with lid -kc
