Mid 20th Century/France

Elite France is a brand associated with French porcelain, often produced for decorative or tableware purposes. Such pieces typically showcase the fine craftsmanship and artistic traditions of French ceramics. The presence of a printed mark like "ELITE FRANCE" indicates a manufacturer's stamp, signifying origin and quality. 

Hand-painted signatures on porcelain, such as the "C. Gorvey" visible here, often denote an artist's work, adding a layer of uniqueness and potential collectibility. These artist-signed pieces can range from decorative plates to part of a larger dinner service, reflecting the artistry of the period in which they were created.
