$761 USD SaleSALE 8 Fabulous Antique LIMOGES Gold Encrusted Fish Plates
Porcelain:Antique
Earliest 1900 Limoges plates, each hand painted with a pair of fish, framed in elegant lacework of gold and green - a set of 8 matching but each slightly different and nearly perfect plates. Thick hand applied gold rim is further jeweled with raised gold dots or 'jewels' will make this set truly dance atop your chargers at table. These have no utensil marks to indicate they've ever been used to serve fish, and I hesitate to suggest it for a fine antique set, but if you set them at table as your ...
$166 USD SaleSALE #2 Lovely Old Paris Cup & Saucer, Figural and Hand Painted
Porcelain:Antique
Number 2 of 2 sets we recently acquired, being sold separately so watch for the other if you want both. This is a lovely Old Paris porcelain cup and saucer, hand painted and with a familiar enough mark on back (see images). The hand painted set have a ground of Sevres blue (this is a color, dictionary verified, a light blue similar to 'celeste blue' which is also a color we associate with these French porcelain pieces). Marks are clearly shown. I do not believe they are Royal Porcelain ...
$2,036 USD SaleSALE Magnificent set of 12 Antique Spode Copeland Cabinet Plates, 9 3/8" Cobalt & Gold, Hand Painted Pastoral Scenes
Porcelain:Antique
One of the prettiest sets we've had in ages, the set you see here is an early 1900s hand painted set in 'salad/dessert' sized plates, (9.3/8" diameters) richly rimmed in gold and accented in gold against that lapis to cobalt blue border, all of which is a stunning frame for the hand painted country pastorale scenes that center each plate. The plates are not for use at dinner, apart from perhaps just having them as place plate dress-up for the first view your guests have of your table when they ...
$1,441 USD SaleSALE Opulent Antique Dinner Plates, Gold Rim, Minton c. 1891 - Marks for 1891-1902, SET of 10
Porcelain:Antique
A fabulous set of 10 antique English dinner plates, each hand decorated and by one of the most highly regarded makers, MINTON, each bearing the mark used between 1891 and 1902. All 10 plates are in remarkably fine condition, very slight crazing can be seen on one, which probably means it was the top on in a stored stack over many many years as they sat unused. The other 9 seem brand new, but are well over 100 years of age. The set combine delicate cornflower blue garlands with gold-latticed ...
$676 USD SaleSALE Pair of Antique Hand Painted Old Paris Raised Tazza Cake Plates, Platters
Porcelain:Antique
Everything on this superb pair of 19th century Old Paris tazza or raised plates is in fine form but the very outer gold rim, and it's rubbed a bit. That said, allow me to point out that each plate is in that deep delicious pink that we associate most often with Sevres porcelains and Marie-Antoinette's bedroom in the Palace of Versailles. And each of these has not only got 4 hand painted ornithological or bird themed paintings, but they're also decorated further in raised gold enamel, also hand ...

The richly gilded borders are speckled with raised green enamel, one could nearly call them 'jewels' in that sea of gold. The centers are ...

With an impressed date mark for 1923, we are surprised by this set's number (12 in all!) and by its fine condition.

The pattern, while I do not know the name of it, is perfect for your Thanksgiving table with the cornucopia of harvest bounty and flowers worked into the garlanded wide border.

$166 USD SaleSALE Stunning Royal Worcester Cream Soup, Raised Gold, 1887 Dates
Porcelain:Antique
The superb porcelain artistry of Royal Worcester is fully in evidence here in this generously sized covered cream soup cup/bowl and saucer, and the condition is as superb as is the design. Double handles in thick hand applied gold elevates the overall fern-like gold decoration of the 3-piece set, and makes it jewel-like.

This set just beg to be on the wall or in your cabinet for decorative accent. They are stunningly beautiful. Hand painted, each has a pair of exotic birds in vignette, and the pink border with raised 'jewel' dots and the gold accents elevate them to fine art rather than just plates, truly.

$3,056 USD SaleSALE Set: 12 Antique French Limoges Plates, Encrusted and Raised Gold, Celeste Blue
Porcelain:Antique
The maker mark underglaze in this fine set of Limoges plates was in use between 1900 and 1932, so we know the plates date pre-1932. The opulence of the set, with applied and raised 18k gold enamel for a bas-relief to the garlands and ornamental wide border, is unparalleled. A center that appears to be a transfer since all 12 plates are alike, though it might well be a hand painted floral basket based on a transfer-ware outline, which is what it appears to be. A stunning set, so well preserved we ...

$4,076 USD SaleSALE Set of 12 Fine Raised Gold Dinner Plates, 1930 Royal Worcester, Gold on Cobalt Blue
Porcelain
The mark used dates these remarkably beautiful cobalt and raised gold plates to 1930. Royal Worcester is one of the finest names in English china, and the fact that we have a full set of 12, all in very good to excellent condition tells us this set was probably cherished and not used. Perhaps they were only cabinet plates on display, or perhaps (and we hope this is what you will do) they were placed at table in all their finery as chargers onto which a salad or entremet (first course) plate ...
$676 USD SaleSALE Set of 8: Vintage Porcelain 8" Dessert Plates, Angels Hand Painted For Nieman Marcus
Porcelain

They're wonderful for cabinet or table use, very decorative. They are salad or dessert plates, or the Christmas holiday decorative plate to rest atop your beautiful gold and white dinner plates, to be lifted and replaced with first course. I don't think I'd serve on these, as utensils will scrape the gold. But I might rest them atop a plate shelf that is ...

Porcelain:Antique
Raised gold enamel accents on the hand painted gold border decoration and a lovely Art Nouveau feel to the decoration, this set of fine KPM Berlin dinner plates is only short on one thing: it's shy one plate of being a table for 12.

Porcelain:Antique
Beautiful antique to vintage Limoges styel 10 1/4" cake platter, rich gold bordering with side handles and gorgeous hand painted blackberry, flowers & foliage! I can't quite make out the marking on the back, the maker initials of "PS" are clear but the lower is illegible (hence the Limoges 'style'). Possibly of German origins, this one is a near match to a 24 piece fruit & sorbet or tea service that we're also listing today. All with hand painted fruit themes and all gorgeous! Excellent ...
