Bring a touch of Brittany's colorful heritage to your kitchen with this charming Henriot Quimper Breton Man Spoon Rest.
Featuring the beloved Breton man, one of the most recognizable motifs in traditional Quimper faience, this spoon rest celebrates the distinctive folk art and craftsmanship of Brittany, France. The colorful hand-painted decoration makes it a beautiful accent for a French country kitchen while providing a practical resting place for spoons and cooking utensils.
Handcrafted in Quimper, France, this authentic piece of French faience is created by the skilled artists of Henriot Quimper, whose pottery-making tradition dates to 1690. Henriot continues to produce and hand-paint its faience in-house, preserving the celebrated “Quimper Paint Touch” and the traditional Breton figures for which Quimper pottery is known around the world.
Each spoon rest is completely handmade and individually hand-painted. One artist paints the piece from start to finish, then signs it and marks it “Henriot” as a mark of authenticity. Because every piece is decorated by hand, subtle differences in brushwork and color make each spoon rest unique.
Measuring approximately 9 inches long, the Henriot Breton Man Spoon Rest is both decorative and useful. It makes a wonderful addition to a Quimper pottery collection, French country kitchen, or Brittany-inspired home, and is a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates authentic French craftsmanship.
