Vintage white earthenware dinnerware set decorated with colored flowers and a blue border, produced in the Charentes region of France.
The service is almost complete with a total of 91 pieces : plates, cups, bowls, sugar bowl...
The thick earthenware, made with grey clay, also called "culs noirs" dates back to the XVIII notably in the earthenware factories of Forges-les-Eaux.
Recognisable by the underside of the pieces which was covered with a dark brown enamel obtained by using manganese oxide, it was favoured mostly by modest households. While the fine earthenware was aimed at a wealthy clientele.
