Vintage Limoges-Style Floral Porcelain Plate

This is a circular fine china or porcelain plate, approximately 8 to 10 inches in diameter, featuring a delicate floral motif. The decoration consists of a continuous border of pink chrysanthemums or dahlias with soft green foliage against a white translucent ground. The inner well of the plate is separated from the wide rim by a decorative gold-toned or platinum-colored filigree band, resembling a lace or picket fence pattern. The rim is finished with a thin metallic edge. The construction is characteristic of early 20th-century porcelain blanks, likely French (Limoges) or American (Lennox/Pickard) in origin, often sold for professional or hobbyist china painting. The flowers show a soft, lithographic or hand-painted quality with blended pastel hues. Regarding condition, there is visible fading and wear to the metallic gilt/platinum band, particularly at the 9 o'clock position where the pattern appears rubbed or oxidized. The white center field shows minor surface scratches consistent with utilitarian use. There are no immediate signs of large chips or structural cracks visible from the top down, though the overall glaze shows a vintage patina. This style was highly popular during the late Victorian through the Edwardian era, roughly 1890-1920.
