This is an elegant Charles Field Haviland Limoges oyster plate with handles.
Page 57 of Collecting Oyster Plates by Jeffrey Snyder shows a plate from the same mold and period (1891-1900), with a price indication of $500+.
While this oyster plate has some age related gold loss (please see photos), there are no chips, cracks, hairlines, repairs, etc. The oyster plate is in excellent condition. Any white spots are due to camera glare. The diameter is approximately 8 3/4 inches.

The intricate asymmetric porcelain mold shape is particularly captivating, and the porcelain remains bright and translucent. The floral decoration is crisp and clean, as well.
