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 and early 20th centuries. Jean Pouyat (J.P. Limoges) was among the premier producers of high-quality hand-painted porcelain, leveraging the rich kaolin deposits near Limoges, France, to create exceptionally fine white porcelain.

This antique oyster platter, dated January 23, 1906, is a superb example of Belle Époque-era artistry. It showcases hand-painted seashells, delicate seaweed, and gilded accents, reflecting the era's fascination with natural elements and oceanic themes. Highly sought after by collectors, pieces like this were once used in fine dining settings and remain treasured heirlooms today.

By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Pouyat Limoges porcelain was considered the pinnacle of French craftsmanship, adorning the tables of Europe's elite and wealthy households in the United States.
