This beautiful antique French oyster plate features six scalloped oyster wells arranged in a floral form, finished in a rich cobalt blue glaze with dramatic raspberry accents. The raised shell texture and high-gloss surface give the piece depth and dimension, making it as decorative as it is functional.
Oyster plates like this were popular in France during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when oysters were considered a fashionable delicacy and dedicated serving pieces were a mark of a refined table. Today, they are highly collectible for their artistry, color, and sculptural form.
This plate makes a striking addition to a china cabinet, open shelving, or curated French tabletop collection — and is equally at home styled as décor or used for special occasions.
