Antique 1891 - 1920 LS&S Limoges France Pheasant Hand Painted & Signed Plate 9. 25 "
Item History & Price
Beautifully hand painted and detailed, this floral and bird (pheasant) themed piece of art is rich with autumn hues and just a touch of gold trim on the very edges.
As per 'The Collector's Encyclopedia Of Limoges Porcelain, ' the two identifying marks on the underside of this pie...ce indicate production between 1891-1920. One is Coiffe Mark 3, the other is the maker's mark for Straus, Lewis and Sons.
Measures 9.25" in diameter and sits on a low foot making the height approximately 1.5". Heavy and high quality French porcelain.
Excellent condition! Completely intact aside from a loss of 25-35% of the gold trim on the rim of the plate. This is mostly on the right hand side. In a strange way it almost seems to be purposeful, but after careful review of the photographs you can decide for yourself!
Any estimated shipping charge overages will be refunded to the buyer.
(Stands, both wooden and clear acrylic, not included.)
