St. Amand et Hamage, Nord, France – c. 1896–1952

“They lost their heads, but not their charm.”

These six stunning portrait plates from the renowned St. Amand et Hamage faïencerie are rich in historic flair and French court drama. Rendered in softly faded tones and transferred by hand in the late 19th to early 20th century, each plate features a noble figure of the ancien régime — including Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette — in period dress, adorned with ribbons, powdered wigs, medals, and pearls.

The edges are gently scalloped with crisp white embossing or delicate gilded rims, and the backs are stamped with the windmill mark of the Nord ceramics region. These were not mass-market souvenir pieces — they were meant for display in a home of taste.

Hang them gallery-style above a console table, or let them peek out of your armoire shelves for a wink of Versailles among your stoneware.

🏛️ A Rare Slice of French Ceramic History

The St. Amand et Hamage faïencerie, established in 1896 in northern France, was renowned for producing high-quality earthenware and porcelain. Operating until 1952, the factory's pieces are celebrated for their artistry and craftsmanship, often featuring intricate patterns and vibrant glazes. The inclusion of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI in this set is particularly rare, as such portrait plates were not commonly produced, making this collection a unique find for collectors and enthusiasts of French history.
