French Soup Tureen - II
France,19th Century
The Story Read More Read Less
The smaller of our two lidded tureens, low and oval, the kind French kitchens used to bring soup or vegetables to the table and keep them warm on the way. It comes from the same Keller & Guérin set made at Lunéville in Lorraine, in the blue Kléber pattern, with flowers printed over moulded ribs and scrolls, small loop handles and a twig-shaped knop on the lid. We found the set in a shop in L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, in Provence. It dates from the 19th century. Inside, the glaze has fine crazing and some age staining, the marks of a dish that was used often. We would keep it on an open shelf with the lid on, where the moulded scrolls catch the light. Sold on its own.
