Description: Signed K G Luneville French faience basket that looks to be in the Old Strasbourg pattern. From the lack of a country of origin on the basket, I estimate this to be from 1870's to the late 1890's in age. After that all imported goods required a country of origin and my research on the Luneville marks indicate that they complied with this law. Wonderful hand painted basket with a floral interior on a body that is decorated in a relief intertwined pattern that strongly reminds me of Christmas ribbon candy. Bowl is about 7" tall at the handle, 3.5" high to rim, 7 3/8" wide top and 5 7/8" wide at bottom. Hand painted marks, impressed marks are the number 3 and a stylized square 4 petal flower like symbol. Their is no transfer work in the painted design, yo can feel the raised enamel glaze of the flower along with an examination under a magnifying glass did not show any dots indicative of a printed pattern. The flowers were painted free hand. It's an exceptional basket.
