Vintage Quimper Cup and Saucer
This is a lovely vintage cup and saucer from Quimper and these pieces are very collectible. It is in great vintage condition and can be used as an everyday item or simply as a display piece. Faience pottery developed from the 17th century onwards in Quimper's Locmaria quarter. Inspired by Breton culture, faience-making reached its peak in the 19th century, with a unique manufacturing process. Soon there would be competition from new arrivals on this profitable and popular market. In the early 20th century, three big names were known all over France: La Grande Maison de la Hubaudière, Porquier-Beau and Henriot. I am unable to date this item but from research it was likely to be from the 1950's/60's Quimper cup and saucer 13.5cm saucer Cup 9cm across
