Most vintage tableware has lived a life. This one hasn't. It presents as the day it left the factory, which for a piece of this scale and ambition, is something worth pausing on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePetite Fleur\u003c\/em\u003e is quintessential Villeroy \u0026amp; Boch — scattered sprigs of colourful wildflowers on a crisp white ground, finished with a vivid red-rimmed border that gives the pattern its signature French country warmth. The lid is crowned with a sculptural moulded floral and fruit cluster knob — the kind of detail that rewards a second look. A considered addition to a table that takes its centrepieces seriously, or the missing piece for a collector building out a \u003cem\u003ePetite Fleur\u003c\/em\u003e service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe black backstamp on the base confirms authentic German production and identifies this piece as part of the \u003cem\u003eCountry Collection\u003c\/em\u003e — a detail that matters to collectors and distinguishes this piece from later Luxembourg-era manufacture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Villeroy \u0026amp; Boch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Petite Fleur (introduced 1983)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Country Collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage, black backstamp — Made in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 litres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 31 cm (handle to handle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 cm (base to top of lid knob)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.7 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLid:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sculptural moulded floral\/fruit cluster knob; no ladle notch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitreous Porcelain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePristine unused vintage condition.
