The Eglantine Compotier
The Eglantine Compotier
Found at a market in Amiens, northern France — a footed compotier made by Keller & Guérin in Lunéville around 1890–1920. The pattern is named in the mark: Eglantine, the French wild rose, printed in deep cobalt blue with a soft flow blue character and a border of small heart-shaped medallions.
The cream glaze carries fine crazing and a warm, tea-toned patina throughout, with one thin, stable hairline — quiet evidence of a century at the table. Use it for fruit or cake, or let it stand on its own on an open shelf.
