Antique 1891-1914 Coiffe Limoges Plate~Decorated with Morning Glories by L.R.L. For Sale

This is a lovely antique plate made of fine Limoges porcelain from France. The green backstamp, under the glaze, of the star with the word Limoges inside it, and FRANCE under the star, was used by the porcelain manufacturer Coiffe et Cie which was established in 1872 in Paris. They were known for their high quality tableware. This particular backstamp was used from 1891 to 1914 according to theoldstuff.com. On top of the glaze is the red decorator backstamp by LRL, which stands for Lazeyras, Rosenfeld and Lehman, also of Limoges.

The plate is round and has scalloped and an intricate design on the edges with an impressed design into the porcelain. There is gold highlighting the edge. The center of the plate is white, with a fade gray on the outer inch and a half or so. Then there are really delicate purple morning glories and their vines and leaves, artistically scattered around the rim.

The plate is about 9 & 1/2 inches in diameter and weighs about 15 ounces.

The plate is in excellent antique condition. There is little wear to the design, a few tiny spots of wear here and there, and no cracks, crazing or chips on the porcelain. A real piece of art from Limoges France!

I pack with lots of bubble wrap for safe shipping and ship out quickly, sometimes same day, always by next business day, and sometimes on Saturdays if I can make it to the post office before they close at noon.

Any questions, please ask, and thanks for looking!
