The all-white glaze, oval form, pedestal base, and vegetable finial are all hallmarks of the classic French soup tureen form widely produced across regional French potteries of that era. The antique French soup tureen retains its original lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lid is topped with a sculpted artichoke finial, with visible leaf relief decoration radiating outward from the base of the knob. The handles on either side of the bowl are modeled in a faux-bamboo style, a decorative motif common in French ceramics of the 19th century. The glaze is a warm off-white throughout, applied evenly with a glossy finish. Close inspection of one photo reveals a small chip or glaze loss on the lower body of the tureen near the foot, with some surface dirt accumulation in that area. This is noted honestly for prospective buyers. The lid shows some light surface soiling consistent with age and use. No visible cracks or repairs are observed beyond the noted chip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe seller notes dimensions of 27 x 24cm including the handles. This corresponds to approximately 10.6\" wide x 9.4\" across with handles. Overall height with lid is estimated at approximately 22cm \/ 8.7\" based on the photos. The bowl sits on a clearly defined pedestal foot typical of classic French tureen production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe antique French soup tureen works well as a table centerpiece or displayed on open shelving. The all-white format suits both traditional and contemporary interiors. Pieces of this type are collected for their connection to French domestic ceramic traditions and their practical decorative versatility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-optimised --\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-shopify --\u003e","brand":"Fleamarketfrance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57964689883480,"sku":"225304230977_CE45_8E6A_F9A4_2AA2","price":123.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/5776\/2392\/files\/57_7bf36f02-2712-447b-bab0-70c4bbcb7d3f.jpg?v=1786700023","url":"https:\/\/fleamarketfrance.com\/products\/antique-french-soup-tureen-white-ceramic-1408263","provider":"Fleamarketfrance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
