Description: Child's Pochoir Stencil Print Miniature Dish GIRAFFE Choisy le Roi HBCM Luneville France c1920 This is a playful stick spatter pochoir stencil ware dish or plate, originally part of a complete miniature children's dinner service. The tiny plate measures 4 inches in diameter. The plate is decorated with a stencil of a stylized impressionistic giraffe and a cactus applied in a two-color motif of bright green and black on a creamy faience earthenware blank. The plate is unmarked except for an impressed numeral 1A on back. Made by Choisy le Roi, a faiencerie in Luneville region of France. It dates to c. 1920. Similar in appearance and manufacture to the earthenware sets made in the Staffordshire region of English. The piece is in great condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. Minor transfer irregularities original to the making, as shown. Not fine pottery and not intended to be. It was haphazardly potted for children and was considered disposable. A great piece of early folk art style pottery made for children. Sold as is. Children's sponge ware or stencil ware of this quality is quite scarce and highly sought after. The naive Giraffe is tall, simple and striking. Please send us an email with any questions or if you would like to see additional photos. Thank you for shopping!
