10 THEODORE HAVILAND LIMOGES SCHLEIGER 1240-5 PINK ROSES BREAD & BUTTER PLATES

Description: Maker: On the reverse of this lovely set of 10 bread and butter plates is the red backstamp number 34 of Theodore Haviland, one of the great Limoges firms at the turn of the last century. This mark was in use between 1904 and around 1925. An impressed "TH" white ware mark number 27 also appears. It was in use between 1894 and 1957. Source: third edition of the Collector's Encyclopedia of Limoges Porcelain by Mary Frank Gaston. Design: The plates are beautifully hand painted with pink roses, pale blue flowers and green leaves, in keeping with the exceptionally high quality that made the company's porcelain so famous, and so coveted. The designs vary slightly from plate to plate, as is often the case with hand painted sets. The pattern is called Schleiger 1240-5. Many of the great Limoges companies produced variations of this classic and hugely popular pattern of delicate pink roses against a pure white background. That means this set would easily blend into similar services by Haviland or other Limoges makers. Haviland pattern identification disclaimer: Haviland produced between 30,000 and 60,000 china patterns, many with only slight variations, and the identification of this item's pattern is not guaranteed. If you are trying to match a Haviland pattern, please check all the photos in this listing very carefully against your own items to be sure this is the right pattern for you. Condition: All 10 plates are in excellent condition with no nicks, chips, cracks, stains, repairs, scratches, crazing or wear. Size and weight: They're 6 1/4 inches wide and together weigh 3 pounds 15 ounces. Please check all the photos very carefully - they are an important part of the description.
