Antique Framed Limoges Porcelain by Camille Faure (1874-1956) 'Stablemates' is a finely executed Limoges porcelain plaque depicting two bridled horses at a feeding trough, signed C. Fauré.  The composition is handled with a soft yet deliberate painterly touch, capturing both the quiet strength and gentle temperament of the animals. Subtle tonal transitions and careful modeling bring a sense of life and movement, while maintaining the restraint and refinement characteristic of French decorative art.
Camille Fauré was among the most distinguished artists working in Limoges during the early 20th century, renowned for elevating enamelwork to a level of true artistry. Active during the height of the Art Deco period, he developed a highly sophisticated technique built on multiple kiln firings, creating richly layered surfaces with remarkable depth, luminosity, and permanence.  Works produced under the Fauré name are celebrated for their technical precision and refined aesthetic, embodying the centuries-old tradition of Limoges craftsmanship at its most accomplished.
This porcelain plaque reflects that same dedication to material and process.  The smooth, luminous surface of Limoges porcelain provides an ideal ground for finely controlled decoration, allowing for delicacy in detail while preserving clarity and richness of tone.  The result is a work that feels both intimate in subject and elevated in execution.
The plaque is presented in a substantial ebonized frame with a deep, recessed profile and a fully finished liner accented in gilt, creating a dimensional presentation that enhances its presence without the use of glass.  The contrast of the dark frame and warm gilt detailing lends structure and quiet sophistication.
A timeless equestrian subject, rendered with sensitivity and supported by a tradition of exceptional craftsmanship, this piece carries both decorative appeal and artistic substance~equally suited to a study, library, or well-collected interior.
