piece measures 7 1/2 inches in diameter. It features a white ground with pale yellow borders with
heavy gilt trim. At the bottom center of the dish is an exotic bird on a
branch with delicate pink flowers. It is trimmed with a blue floral
band with bouquets of flowers. Marked on verso Theodore Haviland Limoges
France in red and "THEODORE HAVILAND FRANCE" in green. I also have numerous other pieces of this pattern, which I will also be listing. If you are interested in any other specific pieces of this pattern, let me know and I will list it for you, if I have it.
This piece was purchased from the estate of American actress Elaine Devry who had at least 14 film credits from 1953 to 1999. She was born in Compton in 1930 and passed away in southern Oregon in September of 2023. She was married for 6 years to Mickey Rooney and then for a time to another actor, Will J. White.
This piece is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or crazing. Buyer pays actual shipping costs.
