Jean Pouyat Limoges Gilded White and Gold Antique Cabinet Cup & Saucer

  

This cup has a scalloped design to both saucer and cup, as can be seen from photo. Saucer is approx 13.5cm from point to point, cup stands approx 4.5cm high and approx 9cm in diameter.

White base colour with gold gilding and decoration. Inside of cup is white with some gold gilding. Has JPL mark on bottom which is Jean Pouyat Limoges and dates around 1890 to 1902. Also has the stamp for the famous Mermod and Jaccard Jewelry co - St Louis on bottom of saucer which is where this item would have been made for. An amazing and highly collectable cup and saucer that will look excellent on display. Both cup and saucer are in excellent condition for age. Slight signs of wear to gilding on inside edge of cup but otherwise in great condition. I will consider sensible offers.
