A rare, unrecorded colour variant of a classic 1930's French majolica serving dish by the world-renowned ceramics manufacturer Sarreguemines.
While this iconic rectangular wicker basket-weave motif is traditionally found with red tomatoes, this highly collectible piece features a rare factory-glazed palette of crisp white tomatoes set against a beautifully muted olive background.
This piece is an incredible find for the majolica enthusiast, serving as either a rare factory trial piece, a limited-run alternative monochrome line, or a custom bespoke order.
In excellent vintage condition. Some very light, age-appropriate glaze crazing on the underside as is typical for authentic early 20th century French majolica.
