French Vintage Agricultural Award Trophy Plaque Bordeaux 1956 12122510

French Agricultural Award

This authentic French agricultural award plaque from 1956 represents a significant piece of rural French heritage. Presented by the Societe Hippique Francaise in Bordeaux, this cast metal trophy was awarded as a Prix du Medoc, recognizing excellence in regional agricultural competitions among French farmers and livestock breeders.

The plaque displays classic mid-20th century French industrial craftsmanship with its distinctive oval form and raised lettering cast in relief. The burgundy red enamel finish contrasts with bronze-toned raised text creating the formal presentation typical of French award design from this period. Natural aging and weathered patina confirm its authentic vintage character.

Measuring 13.5cm x 9.5cm (5.3" x 3.7"), this substantial agricultural award shows appropriate signs of age consistent with its 1956 date. The metal construction remains solid with the original mounting ring intact at top. Surface wear and enamel variations add to its historical authenticity as a working farm trophy.

This French agricultural award would suit collectors of vintage farming memorabilia, French regional history, or equestrian heritage items. Such agricultural awards were highly coveted recognition pieces in rural French communities, marking achievements in livestock breeding and farming excellence.
