Small in size but rich in Breton character, the Campagne Man Miniature Plate is a charming example of traditional Quimper faience, handmade and hand-painted in Quimper, Brittany, France.
Featuring a Breton man dressed in traditional regional costume, this petite plate captures the colorful folk-art style that has made Quimper pottery recognizable and collected around the world. The Campagne pattern celebrates the people and traditions of Brittany with the distinctive hand-painted decoration for which Quimper is renowned.
At just 4.75 inches, the plate is perfect for display in a French country kitchen, china cabinet, bookshelf, or tabletop. It also makes a wonderful small gift for a Quimper collector, Francophile, or anyone who loves the culture and decorative arts of Brittany.
Quimper’s remarkable tradition of faience pottery dates back to 1690. For more than three centuries, generations of artisans have preserved the art of creating and decorating pottery by hand in this historic Breton town.
Display the Campagne Man plate individually or pair it with the Campagne Woman Miniature Plate for a delightful Breton couple. It can also be combined with other miniature Quimper plates to create a colorful collection of authentic French faience.
Because each piece is individually painted by hand, subtle variations in the Breton figure, colors and brushwork are part of the beauty of genuine Quimper pottery. No two pieces are exactly alike.
