Model with scalloped edge dating from the last quarter of the 19th century according to the stamp.
The whole thing is in good condition
There are no chips, cracks or chips.
There is a small defect on the edge of one plate caused by an air bubble during cooking, see photo.
There are two small chips from before enamelling (so still enameled) on the edge of 2 plates.
The enamel of the plates is uniformly micro-cracked.
You can see very small, slightly mottled spots on some plates if you look very closely.
Despite its minor flaws, the whole remains coherent, of quality and above all very complicated to find today in a series of 6 plates.
Diameter: approximately 20.7 cm.
Height: approximately 3.2 cm.
Used item.
These plates have been around for over 120 years and are by no means in new condition. It must therefore be taken into account that despite a rigorous selection and description in order to present a quality set, they may contain minimal defects caused by the passage of time in addition to those indicated in the description. To have impeccable condition, I invite you to turn to new or more modern tableware.
