Two 19th Century French Antique Collectible Rebus Riddle Plate ~ GIEN 8” Rare!

Description: Two 19th Century French Antique Collectible Rebus Riddle Plate ~ GIEN 8” Rare! Decorative Themed Display Transferware. Condition is Used shows some signs of wear and use. Sold as is priced accordingly Shipped with USPS Priority Mail. The plates have old tape on the back that I haven’t removed because I don’t want to tamper with the plates given their age. These plates are rare and are numbered I believe they are French rebus plates from the porcelain house of creil & montereau. Discovered in Bayeux, (Normandy), France the pieces carry a backstamp suggesting fabrication from 1841-1876. The plate series is numbered 12 and 4 Clever and lovely, the center scene of each plate contains a pictorial puzzle suggesting a well known proverb. The French answer to the puzzle is included on the back. The first riddle references a mid-18th century French saying which roughly translates to "aim for two goals and risk losing them both". The second dates from a 13th century saying quoted in the "Roman de Renard" implying one cannot take the same risk over and over and expect not to finally experience a negative outcome. The intricately detailed border is wine-themed with beautiful garland of grape vines and couples in traditional dress of the region.
