Antique Haviland Limoges Oyster Plate Gold Gilt Thistle 7.5" A881

A finely executed Haviland Limoges oyster plate featuring six wells with rich, hand-applied gilt forming organic oyster silhouettes against a luminous white ground. The rim is decorated with delicate thistle motifs in burgundy with soft blue shading, a distinctive and elegant botanical pattern associated with late 19th to early 20th century French porcelain. The gold application shows nuanced variation and gentle wear consistent with age, enhancing its authenticity and visual depth. Hallmark clearly observed: green “H & Co” over “L” with red “Haviland Limoges.”
