It also comes with a 'garantie d'authenticite' from a french gallery that reads: Philippe et Claude MAGLOIRE (SNC) 13, Place des Voseges 75004 PARIS on the front as well as the # CPM 0037 dated 30.10.82 it also says in french somthing like and i paraphrase 'by giving this guarentee the Gallery will take it back in three years for 5% less than sale price if it is proven to be inauthentic' Inside the certificate it has a title "Coupe Islamique" and a description of the bowl with a photo that is stamped with a notary style stamp with the name of the gallery on it. It says that it is from Iran - Nishapur? The age is estimated at 10th century They reference Charles K Wilkinson as the 'bibliography' It says collection Ph. Magliore and is signed by him. The bowl itself is about 8" in diameter, 3-4 inches deep, it is cream colored porcelain, glazed. It is decorated with blue painted arabic characters in the depth of the bowl and also three areas of small blue triangles around the edge. It looks like it was broken into several large pieces and repaired with the witish looking stuff that you see old pottery fixed with in museaums. They make a point of noting that these cracks are outside of the decorated areas in the description. Thank you so much for reading through this, I hope my description is coherent enough. Any information that you could provide would be fantastic. Sincere regards, Chris Nichols Dear Mr. Kent,

I have an ancient bowl that was left to me by an eccentric french aunt and I was wondering what it might be worth. It also comes with a ‘garantie d’authenticite’ from a french gallery that reads:

Philippe et Claude MAGLOIRE (SNC)
13, Place des Voseges
75004 PARIS

on the front as well as the # CPM 0037 dated 30.10.82

it also says in french somthing like and i paraphrase ‘by giving this guarentee the Gallery will take it back in three years for 5% less than sale price if it is proven to be inauthentic’

Inside the certificate it has a title “Coupe Islamique” and a description of the bowl with a photo that is stamped with a notary style stamp with the name of the gallery on it.

It says that it is from Iran – Nishapur?

The age is estimated at 10th century

They reference Charles K Wilkinson as the ‘bibliography’

It says collection Ph. Magliore and is signed by him.

The bowl itself is about 8″ in diameter, 3-4 inches deep, it is cream colored porcelain, glazed. It is decorated with blue painted arabic characters in the depth of the bowl and also three areas of small blue triangles around the edge. It looks like it was broken into several large pieces and repaired with the witish looking stuff that you see old pottery fixed with in museaums. They make a point of noting that these cracks are outside of the decorated areas in the description.

Thank you so much for reading through this, I hope my description is coherent enough. Any information that you could provide would be fantastic.

Sincere regards,

Chris Nichols

The artist is ROUSSEAU.. The registry # is 16106-100…The title I believe is ” La Peinture Naive Francaise”. The actual lithograph is 16″ x 21″. The picture has what almost looks to be the three musketeers, with a lady wearing a red dress sitting on the grass. There are white buildings with red roofs and a very old looking flying plane ( like what the wright brothers would have flown). Below the picture are big red letters saying… LA PEINTURE NAIVE FRANCAISE DU DOUANIER ROUSSEAU A NOS JOURS…. Then below that in smaller black letters….MAISON DE LA PENSEE FRANCAISE 2 RUE DE L’ ELYSEE-VIII 16 JUIN - 9 OCTOBRE 1960…Then below that the word…MOURLOT… All in all the whole thing is 21″ x 27″ with a heavy silver toned metal frame.
