---The history of Limoges porcelain and Société Limousine de Porcelaines

-Limoges porcelain originated in 1771, thanks to Turgot, then intendant of Limousin, who saw it as a source of prosperity for the region.

-This service stands out for its delicate decoration of small roses scattered across a pristine white background, enhanced with fine gold trim along the edges for a touch of sophistication.
- Its style is romantic and timeless, evoking tea times of yesteryear and elegant receptions. The porcelain is fine and slightly translucent, a sign of its Limoges quality.

- 1 coffee pot with lid, measuring 20 cm high and 14 cm in diameter,
- 1 sugar bowl with lid, measuring 10 cm high and 13 cm in diameter,
