Vintage Gien Fondue Plates – 1970s French Mid-Century Design – Buffet Plates

This lovely set of four vintage French Gien fondue plates brings together the craftsmanship, charm, and artistry that Gien is known for. Made in France and sourced from a traditional brocante market, these glazed ceramic plates feature a vibrant mid-century retro feel each with its original Gien backstamp.

Gien’s production process remains famously hands-on: up to twenty skilled artisans handle each piece during moulding, firing, decoration, and finishing. The result is a quality and character that modern production simply cannot replicate.

Dating from around the 1970s (possibly earlier), these plates are in good used vintage condition, showing gentle signs of wear consistent with their age. Perfect for lovers of French tableware, retro design, or collectors of Gien ceramics, they make a beautiful addition to any kitchen or dining display.
