Limoges porcelain plates, 1910

This set of eight small vintage white Limoges porcelain bread plates, dating from the 1910s, embodies the elegance of the French belle époque.
The stylized shell-shaped edges, highlighted with a hand-painted gold border, recall Art Nouveau influences, where nature subtly invites itself into the tableware. Made in Limoges, a mecca of excellent porcelain, these plates demonstrate refined craftsmanship.
