The D\u0026amp;C France backstamp, applied in underglaze green, confirms the piece was shipped from Limoges as plain white porcelain and hand-decorated after arriving in America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D\u0026amp;C mark places this plate within a brief but pivotal chapter of Limoges history: the 1894–1900 partnership era, just before partner Léonard Bernardaud took full control of the firm and rebranded it under his own name. Porcelain painting was a fashionable pastime for affluent hobbyists across America and Europe in the 1890s, but the precision of this plate's slip-beading points instead to the hand of a trained factory decorator rather than an amateur enthusiast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA distinguished cabinet plate suited to an elegant wall display or curated vignette, its brown leaves and deep greens make it a natural fit for an autumn tablescape or seasonal shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePair it with our collection of hand-painted Limoges china and other turn-of-the-century French decorative pieces to build a cohesive antique display.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"D\u0026C Delinieres \u0026 Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43269425365201,"sku":"DC1274","price":170.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/1733\/8577\/files\/IMG_8494_cdadeb6f-63ae-4ca2-bfa9-dcbf4920fb9f.jpg?v=1787781074","url":"https:\/\/www.antigotrunk.com\/en-ca\/products\/decorative-plate-d-c-delinieres-co-hand-painted-limoges-france-porcelain-antique-1894","provider":"Antigo Trunk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
