Haviland Limoges Ranson Set of 6 Antique White Porcelain Dinner Plates

Haviland Limoges Ranson Set of 6 Antique White Porcelain Dinner Plates

Located in Coral Gables, FL

A refined set of six Haviland Limoges white porcelain dinner plates in the Ranson blank, also known by collectors as Schleiger #1. Made in France, this elegant pattern is admired for its pure white porcelain body, softly scalloped rim, molded edge detail, and understated relief decoration. Without applied color or heavy ornament, the beauty of the set comes from the quality of the porcelain itself, the graceful shape, and the quiet sculptural detail around the border. The Ranson blank is one of the most recognizable Haviland forms and is widely referenced by collectors through the Schleiger numbering system. Haviland collectors note that many Haviland patterns were assigned collector names or Schleiger numbers rather than original factory pattern names, and Ranson / Schleiger #1 is among the best-known plain white patterns. Haviland reference sources also list standard dinner plates at approximately 9 1/2 inches, matching the measurement shown in the original listing. The set’s all-white design makes it highly versatile. These plates can be used for formal dining, everyday elegant table service, layered place settings, or decorative display. They pair beautifully with silver plate, crystal, linen, transferware, floral Limoges, French faience, majolica, and other collected tableware. Their restraint gives them a timeless quality, allowing them to work in both traditional and contemporary interiors. Best described as antique to early twentieth-century Haviland Limoges porcelain, the original listing identifies the set as antique, and comparable market references describe Haviland Ranson / Schleiger #1 dinner plates as antique Haviland...

Antique and Vintage Tableware

While it isn’t always top of mind for some, antique and vintage tableware can enhance even the most informal meal. It has been an intimate part of how we’ve interacted with our food for millennia.

Tableware has played a basic but important role in everyday life. Ancient Egyptians used spoons (which are classified as flatware) made of ivory and wood, while Greeks and Romans, who gathered for banquets involving big meals and entertainment, ate with forks and knives. At the beginning of the 17th century, however, forks were still uncommon in American homes. Over time, tableware has thankfully evolved and today includes increasingly valuable implements.

Tableware refers to the tools people use to set the table, including serving pieces, dinner plates and more. It encompasses everything from the intricate and elaborate to the austere and functional, yet are all what industrial product designer Jasper Morrison might call “Super Normal” — anonymous objects that are too useful to be considered banal.

There are four general categories of tableware — serveware, dinnerware, drinkware and, lastly, flatware, which is commonly referred to as silverware or cutlery. Serveware includes serving bowls, platters, gravy boats, casserole pans and ladles. Most tableware is practical, but it can also be decorative. And decorative objects count as tableware too. Even though they don’t fit squarely into one of the four categories, vases, statues and floral arrangements are traditional centerpieces.

Drinkware appropriately refers to the vessels we use for our beverages — mugs, cups and glasses. There is a good deal of variety that falls under this broad term. For example, your cheerful home bar or mid-century modern bar cart might be outfitted with a full range of vintage barware, which might include pilsner glasses and tumblers. Specialty cocktails are often served in these custom glasses, but they’re still a type of drinkware.

Every meal should be special — even if you’re using earthenware or stoneware for a casual lunch — but perhaps you’re hosting a dinner party to mark a specific event. The right high-quality tableware can bring a touch of luxury to your cuisine. Young couples, for example, traditionally add “fine china,” or porcelain, to their wedding registry as a commemoration of their union and likely wouldn’t turn down exquisite silver made by Tiffany & Co. or Georg Jensen.

It’s important to remember, however, that when you’re setting the dining room table to have fun with it. Just as you might mix and match your dining chairs, don’t be afraid to mix new and old or high and low with your tableware. On 1stDibs, find an extraordinary range of vintage and antique tableware to help elevate your meal as well as the mood and atmosphere of your entire dining room.
