All have an imitation malachite exterior border and gold trim. With the emblem of Villa del Mar (Marbella Club) on the inside. The Limoges workshop appeared in the last quarter of the 12th century and continued its activity until the 14th century. In the 15th century it flourished again, with the new technique of painted enamel. It will be the most important enamel workshop, above the Rhineland and Meuse, which disappeared in the 12th century and were dedicated to the production of single plates by order, which were then mounted on an object or joined together to form altar frontals. In Limoges, on the other hand, the production of objects, no longer just plaques, decorated with enamels, was launched, especially for religious but also for secular use. They are cheaper pieces, with copper base, and very showy for the enameled decoration, so they enjoyed an enormous and immediate success throughout Europe. Limoges is also mentioned in documents, which indicates that it was a transcendent center known throughout Western Europe. One of the distinctive characteristics of Limoges will be its very shallow bottom dragging, which does not go beyond two or three millimeters. To represent details, such a fine partitioning is used that it can only be distinguished from the excavated one by close observation through a magnifying glass. Taking into account what was done in Rhineland and Meuse, Limoges introduced its own unmistakable features, and in fact the enamels were applied according to the client's taste, filling only the background, only the figures, or both. As for the chromatic range, it uses that of the Meuse workshops, very varied, but adding new colors, such as olive green, a light grayish blue or white for the flesh tones. In the long trajectory of these workshops, one of their main successes was precisely the fact that they not only made plaques, but also complete pieces.
