Keller & Guérin Lunéville Antique French Faïence Grapes Plate Signed Obert

These beautiful antique French faïence grape plates were hand-painted by Keller & Guérin (K & G Lunéville), France, circa 1900. Each 8½-inch plate features lush grape clusters in richly shaded purples and greens, with softly blended backgrounds that showcase the tonal depth and artistry of Lunéville fruitware from the Art Nouveau era.

All plates are signed “Obert” on the front and stamped K & G Lunéville France on the reverse, with two discreet rear hanging holes for easy wall display. The painterly technique and organic composition make them ideal for mixing and matching in a Lunéville fruit plate grouping or gallery wall.

Offered individually so collectors can select the perfect variation. While beautifully preserved overall, each shows minor signs of age and authentic tin-glazed character.

🍇 Purple Grapes on Blue — Great antique condition; gold-gilt scalloped rim and Déposé mark; some crazing on the back, light gilt wear, and a fine hairline crack visible from the reverse only.

🍇 Purple Grapes on Tan — Great antique condition with no cracks or crazing; one small rim nip—charming evidence of handcrafted origins.

🍇 Green Grapes on Pink Violet — Great antique condition with no chips or cracks; crazing primarily on the back, a natural signature of its age.

🍇 Red Grapes on Sage Green — Great antique condition with minimal crazing; no cracks or chips; small glaze spot from manufacture, consistent with faience production (see image).

Collector’s Note: Artist-signed Obert examples of K & G Lunéville fruit plates—especially vibrant grape motifs with intact color saturation—are increasingly rare and highly desirable. Subtle background tones and minor signs of age only deepen their authentic antique character.
