Limoges Fish Plate Set and Fish Platter. SIX Fish Plates and Serving Platter.

A set of six vintage, limoges porcelain, fish plates with fish platter. Perfect for elegant fine dining! Each plate has a different design, showing various pairs of freshwater fish swimming amongst water reeds and shells. The details of the illustrations are incredibly accurate and realistic, the colours are muted and subtle, giving them a timeless, understated elegance. The plates measure 21.5cms/ 8½" diameter. The platter measures 41.5cms/ 16" X 26cms/ 10¼" wide. It is deep too, 4.5cms/ 1 ¾", so that the fish can be served with sauces and dressings, without risk of spillage. They all have a smooth finish, with a "gilt" line edge and delicate gold "leaves and roses" pattern. They are all in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks, and have the "limoges" mark on their undersides. As with all plates of this age, they may have some very, light "wear" to the gilt trims and some very slight surface scratches to the motifs. They may also have the faintest beginnings of some "hairline glaze crackle", which is to be fully expected with the age of this set, and does not in any way detract from the beauty or functionality of these fabulous plates. They have many years of service yet to offer. What perfect presentation plates for the ones that didn't get away!.
