Vignaud Frères Limoges Hand-Decorated Porcelain Dinner Service for 11, Cobalt & Gold Scroll (VIG6), Circa 1911–1938 — 78 Pieces
A substantial Vignaud Frères Limoges dinner service, pattern VIG6, circa 1911–1938. Decorated by hand in a cobalt-blue scroll border with rust rosettes and small white florals, edged in gold — the enamel sits in slight raised relief to the touch, and the border shows the gentle asymmetry of true hand-applied decoration rather than a repeating transfer print. The four serving pieces carry noticeably heavy, raised gold paste gilding on their rococo scroll handles — thicker than typical fired-on gold trim, and a genuine mark of hand labor.
Complete for 11 place settings across dinner plates, salad plates, cups and saucers, and dessert bowls, with bread plates, cups, and saucers carrying a few spares- each at 12.
