    Description

    This beautiful platter, made by Knowles in the USA, features a French woman in native dress in red, yellow, and black, reminiscent of the Quimper Bretons. Tufts of dark green grass and two groups of three birds, and a green sponged-on rim complete the design.  It has a date production code of 51-11 (Nov. 1951 perchance? - my guess, but I don't know).
    There are no chips, cracks, or crazing. There is one flea bite under the "bouquet," and superficial utensil marks. It looks barely used. On the reverse there is a line of stray coloring, but noone will notice it, regardless of whether it's being used or merely displayed.  Either way, it's a very nice piece!
