Title: Hello,has anyone seen this pattern?
Post by: chinadoll on February 04, 2013, 12:21:23 PM

I have recently inherited an American Limoges china set and know nothing about it. I have searched the internet for many hours using the info from the back of the plate and could not even find a picture of it let alone any info as far as year and value. Any information or links would be appreciated.

The Fragonard stuff is repro'd everywhere. I've even seen it on porcelain insets in furniture


Limoges is generally mass produced cheap stuff masquerading as continental porcelain. Bit like " Royal Vienna "
