Antique French Majolica Master Oyster Server with handle 12 Wells 15.5" A1044

Large antique French majolica master oyster server featuring twelve deeply molded shell-form oyster wells arranged around a dramatic sculptural central handle.

This substantial 15.5" server is an impressive 19th-century-style table and display piece.
