Charming Art Nouveau Sarreguemines Earthenware Pedestal Dish Circa 1900 – 9″

Description

This exquisite ironstone pedestal dish reflects the refined elegance of Art Nouveau design at the turn of the 20th century, with a soft ivory glaze adorned with delicate blue floral motifs. The flowing, whiplash curves of the flower stems are emblematic of the Art Nouveau movement. The glaze shows gentle craquelure and light staining, creating a soft patina that speaks to its age and authenticity. These timeworn details enhance its nostalgic charm.

The piece bears the stamp of the renowned workshops of Sarreguemines, a historic ceramics manufacturer located in northeastern France near the German border. Celebrated for its high-quality faïence and “terre de fer” production, Sarreguemines rose to prominence in the 19th and early 20th centuries for its artistic yet durable tableware. This dish is from the Royat model, a line that exemplifies the factory’s embrace of Art Nouveau aesthetics.

Use it to present seasonal fruit or desserts, or display it as a standalone accent to highlight its graceful design and rich history. Its gentle hues and delicate patterns allow it to complement a wide range of interior styles.

Condition and patina consistent with age.
