******  THE BACKSTAMP HERE IS MADE UP OF TWO PARTS.  THE UNDERGLAZE “LIMOGES FRANCE” AND AN OVERGLAZE “FLEURS DE LYS”  SHIELD.

THE UNDERGLAZE MARK RESEMBLES PART OF THE GUERIN STAMP; WHILE THE OVERGLAZE MARK IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE SAINT MARTIAL SHIELD (FROM THE CITY OF LIMOGES SEAL)  USED BY BAWO & DOTTER.

FURTHERMORE, ON SEVERAL PIECES IN THIS SET, THERE IS AN UNDERGLAZE BACKSTAMP  WITH THE COMPLETE GUERIN MARK AND THE  “FLEURS DE LYS” SHIELD STAMPED OVER IT.
