Footed Bowl – Manufacture MP Samie – Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, Late 20th Century

This Limoges porcelain bowl was made by Manufacture MP Samie in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, the historic birthplace of kaolin in the Limousin region. The underside bears the stamp “Porcelaines MP Samie – Tradition”.

Featuring a traditional, gently flared shape, the bowl recalls the familiar lines of antique tableware. Its generous body is defined by subtle raised vertical ribs, while a small, slightly projecting circular foot provides a stable base and a well-balanced silhouette. Its timeless design evokes traditional family tableware.

Here, this classic form is reinterpreted in pure white porcelain, fully glazed and free from painted decoration. The luminous whiteness and understated appearance lend a contemporary touch to the traditional design, while the delicate ribbing adds rhythm and texture to the surface.

Combining a traditional shape with contemporary simplicity, this versatile piece fits equally well into a classic table setting or a more modern arrangement.

Founded in 1983, Manufacture MP Samie is a family-run business based in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, in the southern Haute-Vienne department of France.
