Charles Ahrenfeldt Limoges Gilt Encrusted Hand-Painted Cabinet Plates, Set of 12

About the Item

This outstanding set of Limoges porcelain cabinet plates was made and decorated by the Charles Ahrenfeldt porcelain factory and studio in Limoges, France. The center of each plate features a hand-painted polychrome floral grouping on a white ground signed by Ahrenfeldt decorator Mireille. The floral groupings are encircled by embossed gold gilt bands which give way to a robin's egg blue ground. The blue grounds themselves bear an abstract tracery pattern with a coral motif. The plates have gilt encrusted bands at the rim decorated with embossed scrolls and stylized flowers. The foot rims have also been gilded. The plates are free of chips and cracks and show little to no sign of use. The back of the pieces bear the green Charles J. Ahrenfeldt conjoined CA France Depose factory mark along with a green C. Ahrenfeldt Limoges decorating mark. The plates also carry a stamp for Fine jeweler and importer J. B. Hudson and Son of Minneapolis, founded in 1885. A striking set in fine condition.
