Villeroy Boch Design‎ Naif Noahs Ark Quiche Pie Plate

There's something instantly charming about this piece. The soft scalloped edge, the whimsical Noah's Ark scene, and the gentle folk-art style make it feel like it belongs at a cozy table where stories get shared along with dessert.  This is the Design Naif Noah's Ark quiche or pie plate by Villeroy & Boch, made in Luxembourg. The artwork is joyful without being loud, and the quality is exactly what you expect from Villeroy & Boch. It works beautifully for quiche, pie, or simply displayed as a decorative kitchen piece.  Likely produced in the late 1980s to early 1990s based on the Design Naif line and backstamp.  Condition is excellent. Clean, bright artwork with no chips or cracks. Light wear on the bottom from normal shelf use, shown clearly in photos. The cooking surface and rim are in great shape.  Oven, microwave, and dishwasher safe.  Approximate size: 9 1/4 inches.
