$225.00

Founded in 1832 in Bourgogne ( Burgundy), in France, Longchamp Pottery in its later years became famed for its beautiful re-creations and re-interpretations of antique French rustic faience patterns.

A particularly lovely touch was naming the patterns after charming, historic towns in the French countryside. One if these was Perouges, a medieval walled city east of Lyon ( I have attached a link for those interested).

The Perouges pattern, which consists of a graceful , abstracted bird, is done in whisper-soft pastel tones of lemon, lavender, periwinkle and saffron on the typically blue-tinged white Majolica ground. It is a traditionally designed pattern with thin walls, scalloped edges and pale blue handles and knobs.

This grouping , made between 1998- 2005, consists of 26 pieces in total . They are:

One (1)! five-cup coffeepot and lid ( 7 3/8")

Five (5) flat cup and saucer sets (2 3/8" cups; 6 3/8" saucers)

One (1) soup bowl ( 8 7/8")

Three (3) salad plates ( 7 5/8")

Two (2) dinner plates ( 10 1/4")

Eight (8) extra cups.

All pieces are in EUC with no cracks, crips, fading, crazing, staining, finish loss or apparent utensil wear. The set ships USPS Ground from Los Angeles.

*** I added four extra cups to the set but did not change the pictures.
