Haviland Limoges White Porcelain Luncheon Plates Set with Gold Trim
A refined set of five Haviland Limoges white porcelain luncheon plates, made in France and finished with delicate gold trim. Each plate is white porcelain, with the soft blue tone in the photos caused by lighting and phone color distortion. The set includes assorted Haviland patterns, all unified by their luminous white porcelain bodies, elegant shaped rims, and gilt edging.
The beauty of this group is in the quiet variation between the plates. Each piece has its own subtle rim shape and molded detail, from softly scalloped borders to cleaner rounded forms, creating a collected and layered table setting while still feeling cohesive through the shared white-and-gold palette. The result is refined, understated, and very French.
Haviland Limoges porcelain is known for its fine white body, elegant table forms, and long association with sophisticated domestic entertaining. These luncheon plates are versatile pieces that can be used for salad, dessert, luncheon service, bread, pastries, or layered place settings. They also display beautifully stacked in a cabinet, arranged on open shelving, or mixed with floral Limoges, silver plate, crystal, linen, transferware, and other collected porcelain.
The assorted pattern grouping gives the set a charming collected quality, ideal for someone who appreciates antique and vintage French tableware without requiring every piece to match exactly. The white porcelain and gold trim make them easy to combine with both formal and casual table settings, from classic French dining to softer cottage and country house interiors.
Presented in antique or vintage condition consistent with age and use, with light wear appropriate to porcelain tableware, including possible minor gilt wear and natural surface marks from use. A lovely and versatile set of five Haviland Limoges white porcelain luncheon plates with elegant gold trim and timeless French character.
