Antique Theodore Haviland Limoges France – Set of 2 Matching Porcelain Serving Platters
A beautiful and elegant antique pair of Theodore Haviland Limoges porcelain serving pieces, made in France and dating to the early 20th century.
Both pieces feature the same refined floral decoration: delicate blue and soft pink/lavender flowers arranged around the border, a matching floral medallion in the center, ornate molded edges, and rich gold gilt accents. The combination of fine Limoges porcelain, sculpted form, floral decoration, and aged gilt gives these pieces a graceful and highly decorative appearance.
Both pieces are marked on the underside with the red “Porcelaine Theodore Haviland Limoges France” backstamp. Faint impressed factory/production marks are also visible in the porcelain.
