Some history:
The Pouyat family, renowned for their contributions to French porcelain, played a significant role in the development of Limoges porcelain during the 19th century. Jean Pouyat established his porcelain manufacturing business in the early 1800s, leveraging the rich kaolin deposits near Limoges, France. These deposits provided the key ingredient for producing fine white porcelain.

The plate in question, dated between 1840 and 1890, reflects the era's emphasis on hand-painted artistry and intricate gilded details. Pouyat porcelain was prized for its delicate designs, often inspired by nature, such as floral motifs, and enhanced with luxurious gold accents. These pieces were considered high-quality decorative art and were highly sought after by affluent households across Europe and the United States.

By the late 19th century, Pouyat Limoges pieces became synonymous with elegance and craftsmanship, solidifying their place in the history of French porcelain. Today, Pouyat pieces, especially those with hand-painted designs and gilding, remain highly collectible and cherished for their historical and aesthetic significance.
