Lenox Fine China
Large Butterfly Shape Dish ~ Very pretty Lenox dish or tray in the
shape of a butterfly, measuring about 7.25" high and 8.75" across the
widest part of the wings at the top. Unfortunately there is a 0.50"
flat flake just under the gold rim on the left wing, where the second
indentation is. As you can see in the photo, it is not easily
noticed, nor is it sharp. You could easily use this to serve nuts or
candy, and no one would be the wiser. In mint condition this lovely
item would be worth significantly more... we are offering it at a deeply
discounted price to compensate for this flaw. |

Antique French Limoges Game Bird Plate #2
~ Beautiful early 1900's handpainted Limoges game bird plate entirely hand painted and signed by one artist
(Muville), in exceptional condition with no chips, cracks, crazing, or evidence of repairs.
Two short surface scratches in gilt rim. Eleven matching plates are available.... buyers can choose any quantity. Our price is only $150 per plate, although the 1996 Encyclopedia of Limoges Porcelain (2nd Edition) lists an average book value of $250 to $400
EACH for similar game plates. Each plate features a different flying and/or standing bird scene -- they appear to be quail, ducks (mallards), pheasants, geese and/or sandpipers. Each plate measures 9.5" in diameter with a 7/8" ornate scalloped gold rim. All plates from this set are double marked with underglaze green Limoges France and star
(Kovels #153G) Latrille Freres Mark #1 (factory), and a red overglaze (decorator mark)
Lazeyras, Rosenfeld, and Lehman Mark #3 (Encyclopedia of Limoges by M. Gaston). They were fired between 1899 and 1913, and painted no later than 1922. Both companies were contemporary to Haviland from the Limoges region of France. All plates have a very minor degree of rubbing/swirls in the gold rim from handling and/or age.
Shipping is $8 for the first plate, and $2 for each additional plate. If a
USA buyer purchases ALL 11 plates, we will offer FREE insured shipping in the continental USA. If you live outside the USA,

luster finish. |

~ This very pretty dog figurine stands about 6" tall, and is roughly 5.5" from head to tail. He is heavy, unglazed and is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks. The bottom of one foot is marked "Akita"... I believe this is a makers mark (he sure doesn't look like the Akita breed to me!) |

Bavarian Demitasse Cup & Saucer
- Bright Floral Design ~ Lovely little demitasse cup and saucer set marked
"Wunsiedel Bavaria Porcelaine" in beautiful condition. No chips, cracks or repairs. The cup is approximately 2" high and the saucer is 4.5" in diameter. The set is so nicely done, it appears to be
hand painted, but I can't tell for sure. It may be a combination of transfer and
hand painting. I have not been able to find any information on this maker, so age is unknown. |

Donkey & Cart Toothpick or Pincushion (?) - Old & Hand Painted in Japan
~ Cute and very tiny piece of vintage Japanese porcelain which I believe is a pincushion or toothpick. It measures 1.5" tall and 2.5" wide from nose to cart. Handpainted. No chips or cracks. There are two round manufacturing related rough spots - one on the horses head and the other near the top of the yellow cart. I think they might have been where the piece was held during firing. The bottom is marked "MK Handpainted Japan". I have not been able to accurately date this mark, but believe it to be 1940's to 1950's era. |

Bisque Porcelain Farmer / Gardener Figurine
~ Nice quality 8.5" tall bisque porcelain figurine in excellent condition. The hair, facial features and clothing are rather feminine, but the body is rather
(ummm) flat, so I can't tell if this is a man or woman. Very nice though, don't you think? No chips or cracks. It's not marked, but it looks like 1960's Lefton to
me (which had stickers people removed). |
