Know before you buy
Quimper Faience is a traditional tin-glazed earthenware originating from Quimper, France. It is known for its distinct, hand-painted decorative style and historical significance in French pottery, offering a more artisanal, porous, and tactile finish compared to mass-produced industrial ceramics.
Because every turtle is hand-painted by a single artisan, you will notice subtle differences in brushstrokes, color saturation, and fine detailing. These variations are intentional and serve as proof of the piece's authentic, one-of-a-kind craftsmanship.
Every figurine in the Odile Landry Collection is signed and marked by the artist. These markings serve as your guarantee of authenticity and confirm that the piece was produced in the Henriot Quimper workshop.
To preserve the hand-painted finish, gently dust the figurine with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can damage the delicate glaze and painted details.
No, this piece is designed for indoor use only. The traditional Faience material and hand-painted finish are not weather-resistant and should be kept away from direct sunlight, moisture, and temperature extremes to prevent cracking or fading.
