The reticulated technique — in which the clay is pierced before firing — requires exceptional skill and patience, and the crisp execution here speaks to a confident and practiced hand. Traditionally used as fruit, bread, candy, or dessert baskets, they are as functional as they are decorative. The hand-painted green, white, and gilt palette is fresh, timeless, and quintessentially French.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCirca:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18th–19th Century\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e French porcelain, Napoléon III tradition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Porcelain; hand-painted green and white decoration with gilt accents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reticulated pierced lattice rim; acanthus pedestal base; hand-painted; gilt accents; traditionally used as fruit, bread, candy, or dessert baskets; sold as a pair\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.5\" H × 10\" D\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very good antique condition; minor age-appropriate crazing\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Drue Bohrer Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45107587874839,"sku":"DBA-013-C1","price":1100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/8049\/5895\/files\/pair-of-french-nap-iii-style-porcelain-reticulated-baskets-in-green-white-with-gilt-accents-4382395.jpg?v=1780469826","url":"https:\/\/www.druebohrerantiques.com\/products\/pair-of-french-faience-reticulated-compotiers-in-green-white","provider":"Drue Bohrer Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
