Assorted Hand-Painted Limoges Decorative Plates

This collection features three hand-painted decorative plates, likely constructed from porcelain, given the 'Limoges' context. The plates exhibit vibrant, multi-color designs, suggesting an artistic rather than utilitarian purpose. The top plate, prominently displayed on a metal scroll stand, features an abstract, swirly background in shades of earthy browns, oranges, and light blues/greens, overlaid with depictions of red berries (possibly cherries or cranberries) and green foliage. This plate appears to be round with a slightly raised rim, outlined in a darker color, possibly black or dark brown. The two plates resting on the white tablecloth below are oval-shaped. The plate on the left mirrors the color palette and berry/foliage motif of the top plate, with its abstract background in similar warm and cool tones, and clusters of red berries. The plate on the right, however, presents a different aesthetic, with a softer, pastel swirled background in light purples, yellows, and oranges, and is adorned with vibrant purple grapes and green leaves, detailed with dark stems. All plates appear to have a glossy, glazed finish, indicating they are either porcelain or ceramic. The hand-painted nature suggests a degree of craftsmanship and individuality, making each piece unique. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear in the provided images, indicating good to excellent condition. The varying shapes and designs suggest they might be part of a larger collection or individual pieces created by the same artist or brand. The scrolled black metal display stand, while not part of the Limoges items themselves, is designed to showcase such decorative plates. The overall style, with its fruit motifs and abstract backgrounds, points to a decorative arts period that could range from mid-20th century to contemporary, emphasizing visual appeal over strict functionalism. The 'Limoges' context implies high-quality French porcelain, though specific maker's marks or signatures are not discernible from the images.
