Product Details
Description
This amazing set of plates was produced by Sarrenguemines in 1889 to commemorate the centenary of the French Revolution. Originally a set of 12, these 8 plates are quite rare survivors in such a large number still together. The plates were made for hanging on the wall and plate still has a little twisted metal 'hook' (which you would probably want to replace if you wated to put them on your wall) Numbers 1,2,4,5 are missing from the set
The plates are antique and so therefore have a few little knocks here and there, the condition of each plate is detailed below:-
3 - Prise de la Bastille 14 Juillet 1789 - This plate has a small crack at the top right which does not go all the way through, there is a small flea bite on the rim next to the crack
6 - Le Roi jure et accepte la consitution 15 septembre 1794 - Some glaze marks and rough points around the rim, no cracks or chips, some crazing to the front and back
7 - (La patrie est en danger) Enrolement des Volontaires 22 juillet 1792 - Hairline crack that goes all the way trough at the top centre of the plate, a few tiny flea bites at the top left of the rim, some crazing to the front and back
8 - Bataille de Valmy - A couple of rough points on the rim top right, some crazing to the front and back
9 - Le Comite de Salutpublic - Some rough point top of the plate on the rim
10 - Carnot a la Bataille de Wattignies 16 septembre 1795 - Some rough points around the rim, a darl glaze mark on the rim left hand side, some crazing to the glaze front and back
11 - Le Vengeur 1 juin 1794 - some small flea bites around the rim with a flea bite on the bottom centre, some crazing to the glaze front and back
12 - Les Grands Generaux de la Republique - Carnot, Massena, LaTour D'Auvergne, Marceau, Desaix, Hoche, Augereau, Kellermann, Kleber - a few rough points and flea bites to the rim, some crazing to the front and back.
All of the rough points and flea bites appear to have been caused by the use of metal elasticated hooks to hang the plates in the past. The plates have a diameter of 21.5cm and a combined unpackaged weight of 2.86kg
