Circa 1903, Set of 3, Antique Art Nouveau Aesthetic Style Theo. Haviland French Limoges Hand Painted Porcelain Dinner Plates – Spider Design

A set of 3, early 20th century, French Limoges porcelain plates with a hand painted exterior design in an aesthetic movement pattern (spiders!) in bright orange, brown, and gold on a white, porcelain background with hand painted, intertwined initials. Plates were produced by Theodore Haviland, a French Limoges company.

The design hand painted on this piece is quintessential Art Nouveau.

Good, antique condition with signs of wear to painted exterior and gold detailing, signs of wear to interior, One small flea bit chip to one plate on the exterior most area of rim with a slightly larger chip on the back of the plate (Please view Photos #7 & #8 in detail.) The wear to the surface decoration does not detract from the overall appearance of the piece.

Exact date of production unknown. Circa 1903.
