| Limoges China253 of 281 |  |  |
The glass bowl is by Hocking Glass Company, they called this pattern Princess. It was made between 1931 and 1934.
The china bowl has what would be considered a "flow blue" edge with transfer design in the center. It dates roughly from the first quarter of the 20th century. S.S.Kresge offered items like this in their 1913 catalog.
To clarify, the Limoges mark on your bowl does not refer to Limoges, France, rather the Limoges China Company of Sebring, OH. It was meant to confuse (and perhaps deceive) at the time it was made. French imported porcelain was all the rage at the time, and this prestige may have helped market this type of cheaper-made china.
