The Parisian Bowl in Henriot Woman combines a versatile everyday shape with one of the most iconic designs in authentic Quimper pottery. Its generous 5.75-inch size makes it ideal for cereal, soup, ice cream, fruit or desserts, bringing the distinctive charm of Brittany to the table.
This Parisian Bowl features the classic Henriot Woman pattern, depicting a traditional Breton woman dressed in regional costume and surrounded by the colorful hand-painted decoration for which Quimper pottery is so well known. The Breton woman is one of the most recognizable figures in Quimper faience and celebrates the rich culture, traditional dress and folk heritage of Brittany.
The tradition of Quimper pottery dates to 1690, when faience production began in the historic Locmaria district of Quimper, Brittany. For more than three centuries, Quimper has become celebrated for its distinctive hand-painted pottery and the generations of skilled artisans who have preserved this remarkable French ceramic tradition.
Each piece of Quimper pottery is individually handcrafted and hand-painted in Quimper, giving it the distinctive character for which authentic Quimper faience is known. Subtle variations in color and brushwork are part of the artisan process and ensure that each piece is truly unique.
