Some of the famous importers Artoria Limoges, Rose Décor, Chamart Exclusives Inc, Rochard Limoges boxes, Sinclair, La Gloriette, Chanille and the likes. However, there are very few companies who have shot up as being top-notch manufacturers and importers, giving the items their brand name. Importer’s Mark: Limoges porcelain may be associated with thousands of companies manufacturing these enticing pieces of art. The stamp of the artist might be inscribed in initials or signature form. On the other Décor Main depicts that some part of the decoration had been created by hand. Hence, the words Peint Main denotes that the decoration was done completely by hand and Rehausse Main means the highlighting streaks were made by hand along with a combination of decals. The decorator’s mark reflects the way the Limoges porcelain was designed or decorated by the artisan. In case where the maker and decorator are same, the manufacturer generally adds a second type of mark for the boxes it manufactures as well as decorates and a different mark for the pieces, which it only manufactures and sells as undecorated whiteware. Decorating companies generally go for printed or stamped marks, while individual artisans prefer writing by hand. You might also come across specific symbols like butterfly, bird, or star.ĭecorator’s Mark: The decorator’s mark is visible over the glaze and may come in handwritten, stamped or printed forms. It can be seen under the glaze usually bearing the words “Limoges France” or numbers, colors or scripts as preferred by the manufacturer. The impression is made on the porcelain prior to the above processes. In order to understand the value and authenticity of Limoges boxes, you have to be aware of the marks that come on the traditional limoges boxes.įactory or Maker: The maker’s mark denotes the factory where the white Kaolin is turned into whiteware or blank through casting and firing processes. However, just like any other work of art, the Limoges boxes have also become the butt of fraudulence with the result that the market is flooded with fake boxes obtained at unbelievingly low prices. The factory in Sevres was the first to witness the blossoming of this beautiful piece of craftwork from white clay called Kaolin molded and designed by dexterous artisans Today, you find a plethora of manufacturers creating their own trademark designs using the distinctive French Porcelain produced in the Limoges area of France. Thank you for bidding and good luck.From the time when the beautiful damsels of the European nobility used to flaunt their trinket snuff boxes in the 19th century, French porcelain had been synonymous with the exquisitely manufactured and painted Limoges boxes.
