Café de la Paix Dish

This elegant shallow bowl bears the distinguished insignia of the famed Café de la Paix, an iconic Parisian establishment neighboring the Opéra Garnier. Produced by Bauscher Weiden, a renowned Bavarian porcelain manufacturer known for its durable hotelware, the piece likely dates to the mid-20th century and was distributed in France by S.E.F.I. of Neuilly-sur-Seine. Crafted in high-fired porcelain, it was made to withstand the rigors of fine dining service while maintaining its refined charm (in other words, will last a lifetime). The bowl’s classic proportions (approximately 5.25" diameter and 1.25" in height/depth) and storied provenance lend it both functional appeal and cultural resonance, evoking the golden age of grand European cafés. Dreamy!
