Description
This elegant antique plate features a finely detailed transfer-printed allegorical scene titled Justitia et Fides — Latin for Justice and Faith. Two classical female figures stand atop stylized clouds beneath a flowing banner, accompanied by a lion symbolizing strength and moral authority.
Such allegorical imagery was especially popular in early- to mid-19th-century France, reflecting Enlightenment ideals and the era’s fascination with virtue, civic responsibility, and symbolism. Rendered in soft black transfer on creamy faience, the plate has a quiet, timeworn beauty that lends itself beautifully to display.
Perfect as a decorative accent on open shelving, layered in a plate rack, or styled into a vignette with antique books and brass.
Details:
- France, c. 1820–1870
- Transfer-printed faience
- Allegorical subject: Justice & Faith
- No hanging hole (not a scale plate)

A thoughtful and symbolic piece for collectors of antique European ceramics.
