click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $1575.00
Although I can't find this pattern in any of the Gien resource books, it is strikingly and beautifully decorated. The Romanesque or Renaissiance Revival swirls are punctuated with the typical satyr heads on each side, and all perch on the matching underplate. The piece is in very fine condition, and both pieces are marked with a painted "Gien", and manufactured by that company in France. The cache pot measures 10" inside diameter, and 8 1/4" in height. The diameter of t ...click for details

This French, signed "Galle" (in the impressionistic twist of the letters), art pottery vase shows the strong Art Nouveau influence of the french school of decoration. There are yellow and Chinese red flowers with black foliage all highlighted in subtle gold and gold washes, all on a deep, dijon ground. The condition of the c. 1900 piece is excellent, with only the expected crazing, but virtually no wear on the inside. It measures 6 1/2" high by 9" in diameter. France, c. 1900

Decorated in lovely Delft blues, this French faience toby measures 11" high, and 6" wide at the arms. The character carries a snuff box and is wearing a floral decorated waistcoat.

click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $895.00
This piece of majolica, a rare example of majolica from Limoges (unmarked but we have had other pieces through the years with this distinctive base) is a match holder in the form of a woman astrologer or perhaps a witch. She has a serpent on the medallion which seems to fasten her cloak together. She holds a basket (for discarded matches?), and stands 9"-23cm high. She has a minuscule spot on the hat which seems to be the only bit of wear. Otherwise, perfect, we are proud to present this ra ...click for details

Blackend by seasons of baking cakes, this wonderful, well-loved and used cake mold has come to us from the French countryside. It measures 9" in diameter, and 4 1/4" high.
