The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

French faience is a form of tin-glazed earthenware produced in France from the late sixteenth century onwards, influenced by Italian maiolica. Key manufacturing centres such as Rouen and Desvres became renowned for intricate hand-painted decoration featuring scrollwork, lambrequins, and regional motifs.

Faience items are crafted from coarse clay that is fired into earthenware before being coated with an opaque white tin glaze. Hand-painted designs are applied using metal oxide pigments prior to a final kiln firing, fusing the paint directly into the glaze.

Authentic faience displays evidence of hand craftsmanship, including slight asymmetry, glaze pinholes, and hand-painted painter marks or factory initials on the underside. Unfinished rim edges often show the red or buff colour of the underlying earthenware body.

A decorative lidded faience box functions as a functional container on a bedside table, dressing table, or bookshelf. Its polychrome patterns complement neutral surfaces, providing a touch of historic artisan craftsmanship.

Dust the ceramic regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid submerging the piece in water or using abrasive liquid cleaners, as moisture can penetrate micro-fractures in the tin glaze and damage the ceramic core.
