Object of Desire: Whimsical Painted Plates by a French Ceramicist

January 11, 2022

Spotted on Instagram: fanciful ceramics by Elise Lefebvre, made in her workshop in Limoges, France, and only available sporadically as Elise releases them on her website (follow @eliseceramique for alerts).

“Each piece is unique, like a fragment of painting, the memory of a gesture,” she writes on her site; “also you will perceive the nuances and the variations while discovering the piece in your hands.” The earthenware pieces are also microwave- and dishwasher-safe.

Here’s a sampling of her individually made plates and pieces:

the flat talisman heart plates are &#8\2\20;small flat plates decorated wit 17
Above: The Flat Talisman Heart Plates are “small flat plates decorated with love, each hiding a symbol, to enjoy a dessert, a sandwich or to brighten up your wall”; the one at right is available, €48.
elise&#8\2\17;s botanical magic flat plate in thistle pattern is €48. 18
Above: Elise’s Botanical Magic Flat Plate in Thistle Pattern is €48.

Above: A Flight piece in Foliage Shade (no longer available), with a “ceramic tab on the back, to fix the bird with a simple nail or screw to the wall,” and Elise’s stamp.

the charming peaceful rabbit dish is €70. 21
