RARE Antique 12-pc. J. P. L. Limoges Demitasse Gold & White Cups France EUC

  
This 12-piece set of espresso demitasse footed cups and matching saucers to serve six persons is absolutely beautiful. White with gold gilt stripes with both gold and black trim. Made of Jean Pout Limoges porcelain. Limoges porcelain is a type of hard-paste porcelain produced in the Limoges region of of France, known for its high quality and artistry.

As indicated by the J. This is a rare pattern and this set is close to, or over, 100 years old. These cups and saucers are in incredible condition for their age -- there are no chips, cracks or crazing and the colors are still brilliant. The only issues I see, as shown in photos, is a few very tiny spots on three of the saucers, a black mark on the bottom of one of those saucers, and a tiny bit of gold paint rubbed off two of the handles.

I have one more cup and saucer not part of this set, but the saucer has a tiny chip on the. Thank you for your interest.
