Description: Limoges William Guerin Plate Hand Painted Artist Ida Leonard Dbl Gold 1891-1900 Limoges William Guerin Plate Hand Painted Artist Ida Leonard 1891-1900 Dbl Gold A beautiful LIMOGES William GUERIN (W.G. & Co.) Scalloped Embossed CABINET PLATE featuring HAND PAINTED Sweet Peas with Vines Circa 1891-1900 from France This absolutely beautiful plate was artist signed by Ida Leonard and has the exquisite double gold rim which so strongly emphasizes the embossing on the plate. William Guerin, Limoges France, established his firm in 1873 and exported large quantities of chinaware primarily to the USA. After he acquired the Jean Pouyat Company and WWI caused porcelain production to be drastically curtailed, the merged companies were acquired by Bawo & Dotter in 1920. The underglaze backstamp on this piece is identified as mark #2 and was used in the 1891-1900 time period according to Mary Frank Gaston in her book, Collector’s Encyclopedia of Limoges Porcelain, 3rd edition. This plate is beautifully decorated with the hand painted sweet pea floral sprays with leaves and vines. The condition of this plate is superb. We can find no defects or damage. There are no chips, nicks, cracks, hairlines, scratches, or rubbings. The gold appears to have ever so slight age appropriate wear on the rim edge, but has no wear on the gold on the top of the plate. As collectors ourselves, we tend to be very picky in our evaluations. This plate is absolutely stunning; this is one of my favorite plates! This plate has a diameter of 9 9/16" and stands 1 3/16" high. Please view all pictures carefully as they are part of the description. The stand was used as a photo prop and is not part of this listing.
