For your consideration is an antique fine porcelain piece by Theodore Haviland Limoges (France) in the elegant, highly collectible \"Lucille\" pattern. This pattern features delicate pink floral trailing vine sprays, soft green foliage, and classic matte gold-gilded accents on the handles and lid finial. The base features the authentic red stamped backmark used between 1903–1925, alongside the printed pattern name.
PLEASE READ CONDITION DETAILS CAREFULLY BEFORE PURCHASING:This item is being sold STRICTLY AS-IS for replacement parts, display, or restoration purposes due to structural damage on the base bowl.
• THE LID (Beautiful Antique Condition with Minor Factory Marks): The matching lid has NO chips, NO cracks, and NO flea bites. The floral transfers are bright, and the gold-gilded finial handle shows beautifully with only minor, expected age-related shelf wear. Please note: There are a few tiny, dark, factory-original firing spots / kiln dust specks permanently fused under the glaze on the interior surface (see close-up photo). These are common manufacturing anomalies from the early 20th century and do not affect the structural integrity or display value of the lid. It is an excellent candidate to replace a broken lid for an existing set!
• THE BASE BOWL (SEVERELY DAMAGED / IMPERFECT): The bottom serving bowl features a prominent, tight hairline through-crack. This fracture penetrates completely through the porcelain wall, visible on both the interior white glazed surface and running through the exterior floral spray on the underside (please review the macro photos where a pen points directly to the crack).IMPORTANT USE WARNING:Because of the through-crack, the base bowl is structurally compromised and is NOT safe for food service, liquids, or hot items. It must be lifted carefully with two hands from underneath the base rather than by the handles.
This set is perfect if you are looking for a pristine replacement lid, or if you intend to use the pieces purely as a static, decorative cabinet display.SHIPPING & HANDLING:We take antique porcelain preservation seriously. This item will be meticulously wrapped in heavy-duty bubble wrap and double-boxed to ensure safe transit to your doorstep. Please review all photos closely as they constitute part of the visual description. Feel free to message with any questions!
