Antique French China Co. flow blue platter. c.1900-1932, French China Co., Sebring, Ohio. Lovely, large antique heavy platter marked: La Francais Porcelain on the back. It features dahlias/mums with cosmos/zinnias. It has no chips or cracks, but does have some age smudges, crazing, and spidering. A French China Co. platter is shown in M. Gaston's 1994 book on Flow Blue, (not nearly as beautiful as this one), and was valued at $225.00 in 1996, see pg. 160). This platter measures 15 by 11 inches wide. Beautiful to use as a table centerpiece or to hang on a wall, or put in the china cabinet. The mark is shown in the book titled Decorative American Pottery by Jamie Wilby, 2004 edit. If you do not like the authentic vintage look you can use a 90% hydrogen peroxide to soak out the smudgies according to that book. The 11/7/05 Auction Exchange paper had an article on Flow Blue; the French China Co. is listed as being one of the limited number of American potters that produced flow blue in America.
