Antique Limoges China Dinnerware

January 30, 2021

Find our entire Porcelain and China Collection. Video Translation: Hi this is Jennifer here with City Farmhouse Antiques and I am here with this week's find of the week. I don't typically get a lot of dinner plates, but these are antique Limoges Charles Ahrenfeldt, very gorgeous, set of 11 dinner plates. So these are the 10 inch dinner plates. A lot of plates you find will actually be smaller than that, but these are the 10 inch plates. You can see they have gorgeous, gorgeous color. They have a gold encrusted border that you can see there of gold gild and they have a spectacular floral springtime bouquet all around the outside edge and these antique plates really pop with the teal blue interior border on each plate. Wouldn't these just be absolutely gorgeous to decorate your Easter table? A lot of people are into that for creative tablescape ideas for a holiday like Easter. It is common to use antique plates and dishes and depression glass and mix and match old pieces to decorate a table. Not everything has to match. You could use these dinner plates and put a different color of plate or saucer on top and then you could also use a pale pink or green depression glass stemware for your goblets or tableware glasses and then decorate your table with a real cute centerpiece. My favorite centerpiece idea is growing a mat of fresh rye grass and then decorating it with Easter eggs and bunnies or chicks to have in the center of a table. You can decorate a table up really cute with just a little imagination. The secret to a classy table setting starts with the dishes, especially the plates. I just wanted to share these with you. Again, it is a set of 11. Tell us where you would use these. These days with everything that is going on why not use them for everyday? Why not? We use entirely too many paper plates anyway. So what occasion would you use these plates for or would you just use them all the time? Message us in the box and tell us. If you are interested in these plates or something else on the website....as we have all kinds of pieces on the website, everything from antique porcelain plates, like these, to bunnies, to things for the garden, to collectibles.
