Inspired by the rugged coastline of Brittany, France, this charming Lighthouse Plate celebrates one of the region’s most recognizable maritime symbols.
Handcrafted and hand-painted by Henriot Quimper in Quimper, Brittany, the 9.5-inch plate features a traditional Breton lighthouse design with the distinctive brushwork and character for which authentic Quimper faience is renowned.
Quimper’s remarkable tradition of faience pottery dates back to 1690. For more than three centuries, generations of artisans have preserved the techniques of shaping and decorating pottery by hand in Quimper, creating pieces that reflect the history, culture and landscape of Brittany.
Each piece is painted entirely by hand by a single artist from start to finish and signed to help authenticate its origin. Because no two pieces are exactly alike, subtle variations in color and brushwork are part of the beauty and charm of genuine Quimper pottery.
Perfect for display, collecting, or pairing with other pieces from the Lighthouse collection, this petite plate brings a wonderful touch of the Breton coast to the home.
