Set of three pieces. In the Limoges style, hand painted porcelain vanity set. Two perfume / scent bottles / flacons with unique hollow centers. Third piece is a powder dish.

Perfume Bottles, two of them:
Measure 6.5" in height and 3.75" wide each bottle. Gilded stoppers fit in place excellently. The bottles are painted a pastel lemon color with five hand painted gold branch / leaf motifs. On one side of the bottles, the lemon color is not used creating a white porcelain canvas that features a gold double cornucopia with protruding colorful hand painted flowers. Graduated size (larger at top) porcelain beads painted gold line each side of the bottles. They are on pedestal bases outlined in gold paint.

Powder Dish:
Measures 4.25" wide and 3.5" high (to top of handle). Exact coloring and split paint motif as perfume bottles. Lid has a gilt handle matching the style of the bottle stoppers and gold painted graduated beading the same as the perfume pieces. The bottom portion of the powder jar is completely in the lemon color with hand painted gold branch / leaf motifs.

All three pieces are signed overglaze in gold with the initals "LR" and all three are marked in blue overglaze paint "Made in France".

Condition: Fine. No cracks, chips or repairs. Hand decorations are surprisingly in very good condition with little to no loss on the flowers. The gold paint has several loss areas: along the edges of the beaded lines on all three pieces and the stoppers / handle are worn ...
