Antique Haviland Limoges porcelain oyster plate featuring six individual oyster wells, delicate blue and rust floral decoration, and 24-karat gold detailing around each oyster bed. The scalloped rim and intricate botanical pattern make this a beautiful addition to a collection of antique French porcelain, oyster plates, or vintage tableware.

The manufacturer’s mark indicates production in 1887, while the decorator’s mark dates to a period between 1889 and 1931. The exact decoration date is uncertain, but the markings place this piece within the late 19th- to early 20th-century Haviland Limoges tradition.

The plate measures approximately 8.25 inches in diameter. It is in excellent antique condition, with no chips, cracks, or crazing. The 24K gold brushwork remains largely intact, with only possible, extremely light wear in a few areas.

A lovely example of antique French Limoges porcelain for collectors, display in a china cabinet, or an elegant vintage-inspired tablescape.
