A rare Bernard Palissy bowl, probably c.1553, moulded and typically coloured with glazes of blue, green and treacle with two angels on a devil`s head holding a crown above a wreath of three fleur-de-lys, very badly damaged, foot lost, 27.5cm F.P. 1. The iconography suggests the coronation of Henry IV (1553-1610) the first Bourbon King, a Protestant who gave the Huguenots freedom of worship at the Edict of Nantes, 1598. The angels are symbolically crushing evil. It was the rediscovery of Palissy (1510-89) by Victorian potters that led to the craze for majolica
