1 QT. Limoges / Bernardaud (B & Co.) Covered Vegetable Dish


Estate Sale Item

  • Bernardaud Limoges fine porcelain china.    
  • 1 QT. covered vegetable/serving dish, a lovely serving piece, hard to find and very expensive in modern china sets.  
  • double gold band in the classic Greek Key design (probably 24K gold) along with a rim design of red roses and blue forget-me-nots below it. 
  • made & decorated in Limoges France by the Bernardaud Co., also known as B & Co.  
  • I have several pieces in this pattern listed
  • pattern is known as BER7 but it is similar/complimentary to their Fontenay pattern.
Size:  10"l (inc. handles) x 8"w x 5"h.

Condition: 

  • Very good condition no cracks, staining or crazing.  
  • gold trim is in excellent condition, the best of all the pieces.  
  • handles have some tiny scratches and there is a 1/8" chip on the inner rim of the lid.  
  • There are tiny black pinpricks on the lid and inside the bowl which are only visible under close examination.  I believe they are air bubbles or inclusions in the glaze from the firing process.
