Again, this was in either my Grandparents' or Great Grandparents' home. It wound up part of our home, but we only used it as decor.
I'm a little confused by it being labeled both Haviland and Limoges.
I'd love info on its age.
Charles Field Haviland is the maker, in partnership with Gerard, Duffraisseix and Abbot. The plate was made circa 1900. Limoges is a region in France, well known for porcelain making, not a maker, and the quality varies, however your brand is well made, highly collected, there are several worldwide collectors clubs for Haviland. There is also a brother Johann/, who setup a factory in Germany
At 13” in diameter, it’s possible a cake or cookie plate. Here’s a link to a great Haviland resource
