Item Description
A mid-18th-century French faience bowl from Nevers, the interior decorated with a charming pastoral scene depicting a folly comprising a pitched-roof building and tower beside a river, surrounded by trees and bushes with a fence in the foreground and birds above.
The decoration employs a harmonious palette of blue, green and orange with manganese outlines. The shaped lip features stylised flowers and foliage along an orange border, while the exterior is delicately fluted, adding textural interest.
A charming example of mid-18th-century Nevers faience with elegant pastoral imagery.
