Antique Limoges Ls&s Hand Painted Set 6 Coffee Cups Demitasse. Roses & Gold

  
This is an antique set of 6 cups and saucers. Of the Limoges Coiffe Factory and the decorating mark of the Limoges. Lewis Straus & Sons factory used between 1890s and 1920s. The cups and saucers are decorated with pink and yellow roses. The flowers seem to be factory hand painted over a transferred outline. (mixtion tecnique) as popular in those times. That is why the flowers. Look similar in shape but different in color tones. The handles and the edges are heavily gilded. The cups are 2 1/4 high. The saucers have a diameter of 5. The set is in very good condition with a little imperfection on the edge. Of one saucer and no other visible flaws. No chips, cracks or hairlines. Please take a look at my store for more Limoges cups.
