12 Dinner Plates La Fontaine Tales — Haviland, Limoges, 1976, 24 cm diamètre, perfect condition.
A collection where no two pieces are alike.
Each plate reveals a different fable by Jean de La Fontaine, rendered in soft blue and framed by a delicate floral border — a quiet dialogue between literature and porcelain.
From The Fox and the Crow to The Grasshopper and the Ant, these timeless stories of wit and human nature once animated the salons of 18th-century France. Today, they return — more intimate, more personal — at the table.
Crafted in Limoges in 1976, in a rare limited edition inspired by the masterful engravings of Gustave Doré, this set transcends its function.
It is not simply dinnerware —it is atmosphere, memory, and the poetry of everyday rituals.
