Product Description: Here is a collection whose historic transferware images would be at home amongst fine antiques. Yet the graphic sharpness of black and white in combination with yellow gives it a certain modernity, underscored by its mix and match theme. Irrefutably dramatic and sophisticated in any setting. Floral embellishment highlights the scenes of pastoral life featured on the Ferme pieces.
Amazon.com Review: Depicting a rural French scene in black and white with yellow accents, this 10-ounce fine china creamer makes a perfect match with the Audun Ferme sugar bowl. The small French village of Audun, where the Boch family first established their pottery, is the inspiration for this pastoral dinnerware pattern.
The creamer's farm scene of horses pulling a plow is based on a copper engraving from the turn of the last century. Classic in shape, the straight sides of the creamer slant inward toward the top, then flare out in a yellow band highlighting a black laurel wreath. Another yellow band circles the base, while the spout and handle exhibit a simple grace. Dressy enough to keep only for formal gatherings, Audun Ferme also makes everyday dining a fine occasion. Imported from Luxembourg and Germany, Audun pieces are vitrified for durability and are safe for the dishwasher and microwave. --Ann Bieri
