I have a lovely Haviland Limoges Bowl with pink flowers and green leaves. The mark H&Co (L) France in green lettering is on the back along with the Haviland & Co Limoges in red. From what research I have done I believe this to have been made in the late 1800's - please correct me if I'm wrong. Also, I cannot find this specific pattern - does any one know this pattern - it looks like dogwood flowers but could be wrong. Thank you

Looks like the mark for 1888 to 1896 for Haviland !! Can`t see the flowers well enough to tell what they are !!

Thank you for your response - attached is a couple of closer up pics of the flowers. I think they look like dogwood flowers, but could be wrong.

I believe it is Dogwood !! You might want to read this before attempting to find a pattern name !! Haviland produced between 20,000 and 30,000 patterns most of which were not identified by Haviland !!

Thank you

Correct me if I am wrong...but aren't dogwood flowers 4 petaled?
The ends of these flowers are sometimes "notched" like the dogwood...but the only dogwood (with more than 4 petals) I have seen doesn't have the notched ends.
Apparantly others can't figure it out either:

Perhaps it's the artist's own rendition of a flower. Thank you
