Empty pocket in cracked effect earthenware with a solar motif enhanced with gold by Longwy. This historic earthenware factory with its unique know-how is renowned for its cloisonné enamels on earthenware. Each alveolus created by the freehand line is filled drop by drop with colored enamel. The piece is then retouched before a second firing at 750°c, then the gold is applied with a brush to the decoration and the object is annealed at 600°c. Finally, sienna is applied to the enameled surface to make the cracks in the enamel visible. Longwy enamels are included in the inventory of intangible cultural heritage in France. This piece has an attribution mark,
