Handsome Limoges game plate. This factory decorated plate features a dove in flight on a colorful ground of soft yellow, peach, brown, and burgundy. The ornate and beaded rim is decorated with sponged gold gilding that is in excellent condition. The plate is signed by French factory artist, Pilvis. It is marked with the Limoges, France, underglaze white ware mark in green, used after 1891, as well as the George Borgfeldt (Coronet) overglaze decorating mark in green, circa 1906-1920. The plate measures 8 ¾" in diameter and is in excellent condition, with very minor wear to the painted surface on the raised spines of the plate. It is free of chips, cracks, or repairs. |
