Antique Limoges Porcelain Dinner Service, Pink Roses, Gold Gilt, c1908-20 ceramic canisters hand painted over a baseA very pretty floral French antique dinner service of Limoges porcelain with pink wild roses, green foliage and gilt accents hand painted onto a white porcelain ground with relief detailing. 14 dinner plates, plus a set of matching serving dishes from M de M Limoges, renowned maker Mandavy de Mavaleix (this mark was in use from 1908 until 1918). While showing a few signs of its long life this sweet set still displays nicely and remains very usable.
