Description: This is a beautiful cup from George Borgfeldt in Limoges, France decorated with flowers and gold trim. A lovely piece with vivid and bright colors. The bottom of the cup is marked as shown, with the crown mark for Coronet Limoges France used 1906-1920, and the Limoges star mark, which was used 1891-1914. Since the 18th century, from the start of the production, the reputation of Limoges porcelain has developed in such a way that the name of the city has become synonymous with porcelain. In 1768 a riverbed with clay suitable for making porcelain was found in France in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, close to Limoges. With this discovery Limoges porcelain originated and developed further. Limoges decorative style utilizes traditional porcelain subjects such as small clusters of flowers picked out in jet. Gold and blue filigree lacework is also very typical. The forms produced are simple and not numerous. Width: 4 inches including handle Height: 2 inches Hallmarks: Coronet Limoges France, Limoges France Star Condition: Very Fine, no chips, crazing, or cracks, minor wearing of the gold trim
