This is a gorgeous Limoges hand painted plate, beautifully decorated with seven fish. Three are well-detailed and painted to appear close, while the other four mostly appear as gray shadows, swimming in the background. The plate measures 9 3/4" across the center, and has a wonderfully-scalloped edge, with raised beading, that's been lavishly accented with gold. The condition is very good, with no cracks, scratches, or repairs. There are a couple of minor paint flakes around the fishes' eyes, and two noticible areas of wear, as shown in the close up photos. The wear pattern is a little unusual, and might have been partially the result of the manufacturing process. It seems a little strange that the top layer of paint is there, while the base surface is worn. Regardless, it is still a terrific piece, very nicely done. It is also signed by the artist, and stamped with green LIMOGES, FRANCE Mark #6, found in use after 1891.
