AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description An antique cheese label, round in shape, typical of French dairy production from the early to mid-20th century. The visual features vibrant graphics, dominated by radiating yellow and blue rays on a blue background, evoking a radiant sun. In the center, the inscription "LE MONDIAL" appears in large blue letters, surmounted by three stylized golden medals. The mentions "MARQUE DÉPOSÉE" (Registered Trademark) and "40% DE MAT. GR." (40% FAT CONTENT) are also clearly inscribed in the central part.

The outer border is bright red, with a white inscription in capital letters: "3/4 LIVAROT FABRIQUÉ EN NORMANDIE FONTAINE VALÉRY, LIVAROT (CALVADOS)". A stylized blue globe adorns the lower part of the visual, reinforcing the brand identity of "Le Mondial".

The graphic design features an Art Deco style, recognizable by its radiating lines and elaborate typography. The colors are vibrant and well-contrasted, with an alternation of blue, yellow, red, and white, giving the whole excellent legibility and strong visual impact. The print is clear, with no major visible defects on the exposed side.

This label, intended to adorn a box of Livarot cheese, illustrates Norman savoir-faire and the region's dairy tradition. The manufacturer's name "Fontaine Valéry, Livarot (Calvados)" is clearly visible, characteristic of authentic Norman regional products.

The edge of the label is regular, with no apparent tears or missing parts on the visible side. The surface shows excellent color preservation, with no traces of moisture, discoloration, or notable stains on the observed side. No major damage or pronounced creases are visible on this side.

Condition Used item, sold as is, with a beautiful patina and vibrant colors on the displayed side. Minor signs of use possible, consistent with the age and nature of the item.

Did you know? Livarot is one of Normandy's oldest cheeses, benefiting from a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO).
