The Pompadour Compote
The Pompadour Compote
Found at a market in Amiens, northern France.
A pedestal compote in French terre de fer, made by Saint-Amand between roughly 1920 and 1950 and marked with the pattern name Pompadour. A teal blue transfer-printed border of rococo scrolls and lace runs around the bowl and the foot, leaving the creamy centre open and calm.
Remarkably fine condition — no crazing, no chips, no cracks. A tiny glaze pop at the bowl's edge and a faint firing mark on the underside remain from the kiln, both shown in the photos. Lovely as a cake stand, a fruit bowl or a quiet lift for the table.
Measurements: height 12 cm (4.7 in), diameter 24 cm (9.4 in).
