"Coffee Service In Gold Inlay, Limoges Porcelain R.Leclair"
Lovely cream and gold Limoges porcelain coffee service. It is a sober and elegant model with a palmette frieze in fine gold and a rare granite inlay frieze on the edge of each piece, with a matt gold finish for the background and shiny gold on the granites.
Great Limoges service for 9 people. 21 pieces. Made of the finest Limoges porcelain with gold plating. A very pretty, tiny floral design with garlands is inserted in the wide gold rim. This makes it look lovely and charming.
Typical for Limoges, the cups are light as a feather and you can almost see through them. That makes this crockery special.
The pots are lavishly gold-plated and radiate a warm glow. They have a certain Art Deco style that is often found in Limoges crockery. You can see Limoges from afar.

(The photographs form an integral part of the description.)
A well-placed antique does more than decorate a room - it gives it authorship. Against a contemporary interior, older objects introduce texture, balance and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated by newly made pieces alone.
This is the principle behind the LÜRON selection. We look for works that carry historical character with ease, and that feel as convincing in a Paris apartment as they do in a more modern architectural setting.
