Pale Pink Fish Serving Tray

This large serving tray is from the pottery at Sarreguemines, which was established in 1784. The company originally made only earthenware and later produced fine stoneware using unusual mixtures of clay. The products were a great success.  

In the second half of the century a range of domestic wares was introduced with relief decoration in forms of leaves, vines and fish amongst others.

This is part of a rare service where the head and the tail is handpainted in a slight marroon colour.

Vintage piece.

Saucer and plates are available in the same service.
