Delft Pedestal Dish

France, 20th Century

$55

Antique Sylvie Favorite Styling Essential

The kind of piece that quietly earns its place. Found in Montpelier, this pedestal Delft-style dish was made to echo the blue and white ceramics that filled grown-up cupboards across Europe, lifted just slightly on a footed base that gives it a bit more presence. It carries a delicate transfer of florals and pastoral motifs, bordered with a soft scrolling edge, with gentle variation in the glaze that comes with time. Sylvie keeps one by the sink and uses it as a resting place for rings while washing up, or on a bedside table where it catches the small things you reach for daily.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.
