Description

Color: Blue; Red; White; Yellow A Haviland Limoges china oval serving dish in Paisley pattern, ca. 1893-1930. The item has a gold-band edge and floral pattern on the inside edge consisting of twelve groupings of flowers linked by a floral chain and a series of vines with flowers. Colors used in the flower pattern include navy blue, blue-green, yellow, and red. Maker's marks on the back include, in green, "Haviland/ France" and, in red, "DECORATED BY/ Haviland & Co./ Limoges." With bottom abrasions also causing chipping of the paint, adhesive residue from a price tag on the face, light dust and grime, and light stains from grime, the condition of the object is good.
