Manufacturer: Limoges French
This oyster plate is exquisitely designed and executed, with six radial oyster wells and a center sauce rosette. The scalloped plate shape with embossed porcelain and brushed gold trim flow beautifully together, while the beautifully detailed floral decoration raises the overall presentation to championship levels. The under glaze green manufacturer’s mark – Limoges/France with swallow – is that of porcelain maker Vultury Frères.
