19th century French longchamp barbotine asparagus dish with matching platter is a rare find, indeed! Surviving together for over a century, each still displays rich coloration thanks to the proprietary painting and glazing methods by the well-known French ceramic masters at Longchamp. Note the cradle for the vegetables has holes to allow excess water to drain onto the platter by design, providing drip free serving. Having the two piece design also makes cleanup a snap. The artfully cast porcelain combined with the combination of green with eggplant highlights depicts the primary vegetable for which the service was designed. Tres elegante!
