A set of eight, French, Limoges porcelain, game bird plates and matching platter. Sumptuously ornate with gorgeous "gilded" filigree edge borders. The perfect gift for anyone who enjoys hunting and cooking their quarry.

These exquisitely, stylish plates would look wonderful displayed in a hunting lodge/country manor setting.

The plates are luncheon sized, so slightly smaller than full size dinner plates. Perfect for game terrines, pâtés and foie gras entrée/ hors d'oeuvre (starter) courses. They measure 21.5cms (8½") diameter, and each weighs 325gms (11.4ozs.)
There are four different designs on the eight dinner plates (two each of Pheasant, Partridge, Snipe and Grouse, illustrated in their natural habitats.) The colours and details of the illustrations are incredibly accurate and realistic. Beautiful Landscapes, in an autumnal palette that is timelessly elegant.
The platter measures 41.5cms (16¼") long x 29cms (11½") wide and is deep too, 5cms/ 2", so that the meat can be served with sauces and dressings, without risk of spillage. It is heavy, weighing 1.4kgs (3lbs.) It has a larger version of the scene, with a pair of Pheasants, from the dinner plates.
This platter would make an ideal table centrepiece for serving a beautifully prepared bird. It would also be a wonderful party or buffet piece, for serving pâtés/ canapés /entrée/ hors d'oeuvre (starter) courses, to add style to your setting.

All in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks, they all have the "Limoges, France" porcelain mark on the undersides. There is some microscopic "wear" to the motif on the platter, barely detectable and not noticeable at normal viewing distance, this in no way detract from the functionality or beauty of this amazing plate set.

et Voilà!
