Louis XIII Hb Choisy-le-roi Earthenware Tableware Set, Late 19th Century

A 32-piece tableware set made of fine Terre de Fer earthenware, from the famous HB & Cie Choisy-le-Roi factory. This is the “Louis XIII” model, produced in the late 19th century (1880–1900).

This model is distinguished by its refined two-tone decoration: a scalloped border featuring friezes of vine leaves printed in pale blue, framing lively, captioned landscape scenes in the center rendered in sepia (bister). Each type of plate features a different rural or seascape scene: The Pier, The Dovecote, The Boat, Evening, Snow, The Turret, The Belvedere

Lot Composition (32 pieces)
26 dinner plates (Diameter: 24 cm)
5 soup plates (Diameter: 24 cm)
1 large round serving platter (Diameter: 34 cm)

Condition: Generally in good household condition. The set has undergone rigorous sorting: pieces with major defects (significant cracks or chips) have been removed.

Please note that, consistent with the age and use of this fine earthenware, there are localized discolorations and age spots (mostly on the reverse side). The glaze retains a beautiful overall luster despite slight surface patina. This sound set remains fully functional and retains all its authentic late-19th-century charm.

More information available upon request, and, if you wish, photos of each plate showing both the front and back.
