There’s a reason collectors still look for the word Limoges on the bottom of porcelain. 🌸🇫🇷
Limoges became famous for porcelain after deposits of kaolin — the exceptionally pure white clay essential to making hard-paste porcelain — were discovered near Limoges, France in the 18th century. Combined with skilled craftsmen, it helped turn Limoges into one of the great porcelain-producing centers of Europe.
This antique William Guérin Limoges double-handled bouillon cup and saucer comes from that tradition.
William Guérin was one of the respected manufacturers working in Limoges during this golden era of French porcelain — and more than a century later, this little cup and saucer is still lovely.
