This exquisite oval-shaped porcelain bowl from Limoges is a true masterpiece of Art Nouveau style. Featuring a stunning hand-painted floral pattern in light pastels, this antique piece is an original production from the early 20th century. Stunning white petal flowers along baby blue and amber waves of leaves, this piece is definitely one of the more gorgeous pieces I’ve seen in a long time. Heavy gold gilded wavy edges and two handles top of the already screaming Art Nouveau style! Signed by Pascal on the inside of the bowl in gold, it is also stamped on the bottom with the Elite Works St. Martial stamp and Elite L France, dating it to approximately 1920. An extremely large, centerpiece type bowl, it measures 14 3/4″ in length, 8.5″ in width, and 4.5 in height. In excellent condition with only some very minor wear to the gold gilded edges. This exquisite bowl would add elegance to any household!
