ANTIQUE BLUE Wm Guerin Co LIMOGES FRANCE Gold Lace/Moriage Floral c1890s PLATE
This pattern is super rare & hard to find, and dates from the Victorian era. It is lavish, lush, and quite stunning.
Large Size 11" diameter x 1" deep. Blue border edge with gold lace is 3" wide. White round central circle with garland of roses is 5" diameter.
Features FABULOUS hand painted 22K gold gilt 'lace' on the sapphire blue border with slightly raised moriage 'beading' in the centers of flowers and leaves as well as around edges. Central artwork features hand painted roses and smaller flowers in shades of pastels with green leaves. Also has tiny moriage beading on the flowers. Snowy white porcelain background.
Excellent condition- just about PRISTINE. No nicks chips cracks scratches fading or repair. As lovely an example of this plate as to be found. No cutlery marks as this was obviously a treasured display piece.
Highly collectible- great as a cabinet display piece, a centerpiece, or many people use plate hangers to hang these on a wall. Gorgeous image.
Nice and heavy, fully marked with all maker info on back. William Guerin & Co decorated Limoges pieces at the zenith of the most ornate time period for these plates to be made- the very best of the best.

Please note the following, dear fellow shopping enthusiasts:
I strive to give you the best service possible. I am not a dealer or professional, just a lifelong collector and enthusiast. I only list items that I think are unique and of good quality. I represent my items as accurately and clearly as I can, and believe it is always better for you to have too much information than not enough! Please ask any questions before offerding, I will happily respond.
Remember, these are vintage items and will have reasonable signs of age and wear which only adds to their personality, appeal and "funky vintage-ness". They are not in their original boxes unless noted. I do not excessively clean items or remove age patina, as I want to leave that option for the buyer.
I will promptly ship your item within 2 business days and post great positive response for you once payment is received.
Go Green! I try to re-use clean, almost-new shipping boxes when possible.
I will gladly combine shipping on multiple items for you.
Thank you for looking
