I have inherited this set from my great grandmother, but don't know much about it, other than what is shown here. It is sitting in a box in my basement and would much rather it see some use from someone who appreciates it. Anyone know the pattern or anything else about it?
Thanks!
The mark dates from the 1920-30's period. I think there's a Haviland collectors Society on-line which could help identify the pattern
I have this same pattern but on the back of my china it says "La France" with the Theodore Haviland Limoges France red backstamp
That's the Schleiger 636 pattern, often mistaken for the Richmond pattern (my great grandmother had several Richmond pieces.)
The differences are subtle:
