Description

In the manner of true Pique Assiette, the pieces were broken or hand cut to decorate a new Italian terra cotta garden pot. This beautiful very old and rare Coalport scenic plate, depicting an Egyptian water scene, features heavy gilding and turquoise enameling. Since the backstamp was on the reverse side of the scene, I cannot show. I added a Royal Pottery yellow plate, genuine turquoise pebbles, art deco brass and gold tone findings to finish. The whole is done with gilded grouting for a true  archeological effect. The pot has been treated so that it can be outside without discoloring or mildewing and has a drainage hole. Measures 7.5"H x 8.5" across the top. I can see this beautifully displaying a lush peace lily, for example!

CherryGal's Fit Of Pique Genuine Pique Assiette Mosaics combine antique and vintage porcelains and china (including back stamps), figurines, buttons, jewelry, glass, charms, sea shells, semi-precious stones, genuine Swarovski crystals, 18K Gold and Silver Leaf Accents and signed with an 18K Gold or Silver "Cherries" mark. The style is organic, with an archaeological effect as if washed up on a beach or dug from the earth. Each Fit Of Pique is a unique work of art.
