Lenox Angel Plate Appraisal

Lenox 2003 Annual Holiday Collector Plate - Angel Motif

This is a fine bone china collector plate from the year 2003, manufactured by Lenox as part of their annual holiday series. The plate features a central illustration of a celestial angel with flowing auburn hair and large golden wings, dressed in a layered gown of pale blue and sage green. She is set against a vibrant blue night sky filled with stardust and golden stars. The rim is decorated with a classic green holly and red berry vine, accented by a flowing red ribbon bow at the top, and finished with a hand-applied 24-karat gold trim around the outer edge. The year '2003' is clearly printed in gold script near the bottom of the central artwork. Regarding condition, the plate appears to be in mint, unused condition, still housed in its original red presentation box with a protective white mesh band across the center. There are no visible chips, cracks, or signs of gilt loss. The box shows minor shelf wear but remains structurally sound. This piece represents typical high-quality American craftsmanship from the early 21st century, designed for display and seasonal use.
