Lot #43: Floral "Limoges" Pitcher

Sold for

$1.00

Time Remaining:

Closed

End time:

Thursday, April 27, 2023 at 8:10:00 PM

Perfectly balanced and sculpted with some gilt on scalloped rim, base, and crashing wave handle. No chips, cracks, or crazing.  Stamp on bottom. 
This ornate 7"H x 4"W x 5.5"L pitcher was actually made by the Ohio China Co. (O.C.CO) in Sebring, Ohio.  The company was in existence under this name from 1890 to 1912. The company was threatened with a lawsuit from the Limoges Company in France and had to stop using the name Limoges so they changed it to American Limoges.
The porcelain is not comparable to that which is made in France and most of the patterns are transfer printed rather than hand painted, almost like a printing process. As you can see (or feel) here, the imagery on either side is identical, indicating the transfer process in play.  Also see close-up of flawed transfer area. Still...a pretty piece! 

Condition: very good
Measurements: 7"H x 4"W x 5.5"L
