Set of 2 Napoleon talking plates in Opaque earthenware from Sarreguemines 8 and 11

This set of 2 talking plates is dedicated to the feats of arms of napoleon bonaparte. In sarreguemines earthenware, they are stamped on the back with the black “opaque de sarreguemines” crest. This series can be dated to the 19th century. They belong to a series of speaking plates on battles of the napoleonic army: n° 11 "soldiers unable to kiss you all, I kiss your general, come gn petit! 1814" and n°8 "honor to unfortunate courage 1809" the border is decorated with napoleonic symbols in shades of black. They measure 19 cm in diameter. In good general condition, I note scratches, cracks in the enamel and stains under the cover, as well as chips.
