Description: Maker: On the reverse of these 4 lovely bread and butter plates are two green backstamps of Charles Ahrenfeldt, one of the great Limoges firms at the turn of the last century. One is white ware mark number 3, confirming that the company produced the porcelain between 1894 and the 1930s. The other is the green Ahrenfeldt decorator's mark number 8a, which was used in the same period. Source: The Collector's Encyclopedia of Limoges Porcelain by Mary Frank Gaston, third edition. The green retail mark of R. H. Stearns & Co, a high-end store in Boston at the turn of the last century, also appears. Design: Accented in gold, the beautiful pattern features large pink and yellow cabbage roses against a background of fine pure white porcelain. Condition: There are no marks, nicks, stains, repairs or crazing. One plate has an old chip on the edge that leads to a hairline crack and all 4 have light wear to the edges. The chip and crack are shown in the photos. Size: The plates are 6 1/2 inches wide and together weigh 1 pound 6 ounces. Please check all the photos very carefully - they are an important part of the description.
