The piece features a deep cobalt flow blue border with a gilded scalloped rim and embossed scrollwork with gold scroll accents. The central pastoral transferware scene depicts a sailing ship, a small cottage and a Dutch windmill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBackstamp Fleur-de-lis with \"La Francaise Semi-Vitreous\" printed mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an unusual piece, because most flow blue pieces were imported from England. The aesthetic is unadulterated cottage or grandmillenial, although this patina drenched bowl would also be at home in a French country home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA note on display and care: Due to the heavy crazing characteristic of semi-vitreous pottery of this age, this piece is recommended for display only.

Don't submerge in water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSIZE 9\" x 6.75\" x 2\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCONDITION Honestly antique. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eHeavily crazed throughout, consistent with age.
