Artisans and ateliers in Limoges quickly established a global reputation for producing exceptionally translucent, high-fired hard-paste porcelain tableware and decorative objects. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, numerous independent studios and factories operated in the city, each contributing to the enduring prestige associated with the Limoges name.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis decorative plate draws heavy inspiration from the legendary jeweled Easter eggs created by Peter Carl Faberge for the Russian Imperial Court during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The intricate enamel-style transfer printing mirrors the opulent gold filigree, vibrant coloration, and delicate floral motifs characteristic of Faberge's masterpieces. Such commemorative porcelain pieces became popular collectibles in the latter half of the 20th century, appealing to admirers of both French ceramic artistry and Russian imperial history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kenilworth Antiques and Decor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42902680207445,"sku":null,"price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0643\/2017\/6213\/files\/2155E547-68B6-4379-BE20-D57B9A884D65.jpg?v=1789654633","url":"https:\/\/kenilworthantiques.com\/products\/limoges-plate-featuring-a-faberge-egg","provider":"Kenilworth Antiques and Decor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
