⚜️ANTIQUE LIMOGES KAUFFMANN PLATE⚜️
✨DESCRIPTION
Discover the timeless elegance of this hand-painted Limoges porcelain plate, featuring a captivating neoclassical scene inspired by Angelica Kauffmann's celebrated artwork "Triumph of Amor". The composition depicts Cupid's triumphant procession—his chariot gracefully pulled by three ethereal maidens through a serene landscape.
The central portrait is framed by a heavy, luxurious brushed 22k gold gilt rim boasting an elegant, heavily embossed scalloped edge, adding luxurious dimension to this museum-quality piece. Authenticated by dual factory marks on the reverse, including the Coiffe porcelain factory stamp and Blakeman & Henderson's circular mark, this treasure dates to the height of French porcelain craftsmanship between 1890 and 1910. A remarkable acquisition for discerning collectors of fine antique decorative arts.
