HAVILAND- CFH/GDM LIMOGES- AUTUMN- c.1891 SAUCE/GRAVY BOAT- EXCELLENT !!

THE BOAT, WITH ATTACHED UNDER PLATE, IS IN  EXCELLENT  CONDITION …..   APPEARS UNUSED, OR RARELY USED. THERE ARE NO CHIPS, CRACKS OR CRAZING.   THE GILT  IS GREAT ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING ITS APPROXIMATE 125 YEAR AGE !!  (VERY SLIGHT WEAR TO THE GILT AT THE LID HANDLE AND SOME FRECKLING ON LID RIM.)

THE PATTERN IS A VERY MELLOW  AUTUMN DESIGN WITH FALL COLOURS. THE PORCELAIN HAS  EMBOSSED DETAILING ALONG THE EDGE.

THE  BOAT  MEASURES 6 3/8 INCHES FROM END TO  END,  4 1/4  INCHES ACROSS TO THE SIDES, AND STANDS 4 1/4 INCHES IN HEIGHT AT THE  LID HANDLE.  THE ATTACHED UNDER PLATE IS 8 3/4 INCHES IN LENGTH AND 5 1/2 INCHES WIDE.

WHAT A GREAT ADDITION TO YOUR ANTIQUE SAUCE BOAT  COLLECTION OR TO YOUR LIMOGES SET.  MANY LIMOGES PATTERNS BLEND IN WELL TOGETHER SO  DO  MIX IT UP !!    KEEP IN MIND THAT AS TIME MARCHES ON, LESS OF THIS  FINE PORCELAIN WILL BE AVAILABLE ….  AND REMEMBER …. YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH HAVILAND !!!
