Elegant French antique CREIL ET MONTEREAU ‘Carnation’ pedestal compotier fruit / cake stand – Art Nouveau – ocher shops brown & black floral
Beautiful compotier from the famous French manufacturer Creil et Montereau, dating from the late 1800s or early 1900s.
This is the ‘Oeillet' (Carnation) pattern, which reveals strong Art Nouveau influences in the stylized depiction shops of a bowl of carnations with swirling leaves.
The central image is elaborated in an elegant palette of ocher, brown and black, and the colors are echoed in the trim around the rim and the foot of the compotier.
Diameter about 25cms (10 inches), height about 12.5cms (5 inches).
Creil et Montereau stamp underneath.
Excellent antique condition.
Would make a gorgeous centerpiece for fruit etc.
I am also selling a tureen in this pattern.
I am happy to combine postage wherever possible.
