Vintage French Avocado Dishes Set of 4 – Porcelain Prawn Bowls made by L’Arc-en-Ciel

A charming set of 4 vintage French avocado dishes, each decorated with the traditional “L’Avocat” avocado and prawn design. This vintage French brocante find is a wonderfully retro piece of French tableware, originally designed for serving individual avocado starters and particularly suited to classic prawn cocktail, seafood appetisers and filled avocado dishes.

Made from white French porcelain with colourful avocado and seafood decoration, these individual serving bowls are also ideal for dips, tapas, olives, snacks and small starters. Their distinctive avocado-shaped form and nostalgic design make them particularly appealing for a French country kitchen, retro-inspired table setting or collection of vintage European tableware.
