Jose Francisco de Sousa palissy ware cup and saucer.

Hello, going through my wife’s grans old stuff.
I am looking for information on a piece I have found. A cabbage ware cup and saucer. The research I have been able to do suggests it is a Jose Francisco de Sousa (JFS marking on the bottom) palissy ware piece? But I have no idea about it or value- can anyone help.

 

Could you please post photos of the piece and the marks? Someone will try to help I'm sure.

 

I have tried but I get an error saying the file is too large

 

OK what you have to do is. Open the file again in something like photo shop. Now you should see button for "Resize.' CLick that. NOw it gives you an option for "percentage" or "pixels". Click on pixels. Now put in a number into one of the windows. 1200 is a good number to pick. Enter the number. The other window (vertical or horiznotal) will automatically adjust to make it the similar to other.

Now the picture looks the same to you but its changed. TRy to download it again.

 

If the picture is on your phone - email it to yourself as size medium, download it and then post if here. Pics have to be under 1MB.

 

Tank you... managed to get the pictures below 1 MB.... hope this helps

 

Welcome, Mfk.

Hi,
Just wanted to say you take wonderful photos of your item. Also it is a gorgeous cup and saucer.

VERY PRETTY!!!

 

It's the cabbage worm handle that cracks me up. From just the 2 examples I've seen, looks like this guy had a sense of humor (or rather Palissy did) & liked to include creatures with a bit of an ick factor. Great set.

 

NICE job getting the images up & FULL size!!!!! Thank you!!!!
