absolutely no wear to the colors and no crazing. There is minor gold wear to the top of one of the candlesticks. Look in photo #7 to
see this.

HISTORY/MARKS: Martial Redon worked with Gibus from the mid-1850’s to 1881. Then he took over the company in 1882 calling it Martial Redon Limoges while continuing to manufacture white ware. Martial Redon died in 1890, but the company and its marks were continued by his son, J. Redon, until 1896. By 1906, new owners changed the pottery name to La Porcelaine Limousine and also changed the white ware mark used to reflect this while continuing to use the M. Redon red decorating mark. They continued in business until the late 1930’s. The green mark on the bottom of this piece is cited in Mary Frank Gaston’s Collector’s Encyclopedia of Limoges Porcelain as mark #1 used from 1905-late 1930's.
