Set of Eight Soup Plates in White Glazed Porcelain – Limoges, Second Half of the 20th Century

Set of eight soup plates in white Limoges porcelain, by an unidentified manufacturer, as no maker’s mark is present.

Measuring 19.5 cm in diameter, these plates feature a gently curved well and an elegant scalloped rim. Their appeal lies primarily in the finely moulded design, with a succession of undulating lines and raised mouldings extending around the rim. This interplay of volumes, both understated and refined, gives the set a distinctive presence on the table.

The whiteness, fine texture and quality of the porcelain paste, combined with the precision of the moulded decoration, are characteristic of Limoges porcelain production. Entirely white, the plates showcase the purity of the material and the sculptural quality of the relief, without any painted decoration to distract from their elegant form.

Their size makes them particularly suitable for serving salads, starters, desserts or small dishes. Their timeless design allows them to complement both a classic table setting and a more contemporary presentation.
