Show and Tell Friday
A little history about Limoges. It is a porcelain that was actually produced by a number of factories in the Limoges region of France from the late 1700's until around 1930. At one point in the 1920's as many as 48 companies were producing ware marked Limoges.
I wanted to share the only piece of Limoges, France I have. I was at an estate sale and I saw this elegant vintage china tureen and when I turned it over it had stamped on the bottom YES!!!!
France - Limoges
I bought it for $10.00 dollars. I don't know if it was a good price or not but, I loved it. The unique shape, patina and detailing are so beautiful.
It is center stage in the cabinet with my tea cups, saucers and tea pots.
This is a great view of the top
I don't know if this piece is decorated with a transfer or hand painted. Some transfers were decals of sorts that mimicked hand decorating. They were often combined with techniques executed by hand. I am not an expert. I just love this piece. My one and only piece of Limoges China.
Thank you Cindy @ My Romantic Home for hosting this wonderful party. Please link back to Cindy's blog and enjoy many beautiful things.
