Limoges Cobalt blue and 22kt gold courting couples display plate with hanger c1930's

• PLEASE VIEW THE PICTURES CAREFULLY AS THEY FORM PART OF THE DESCRIPTION

• The "JV" monogram on your porcelain piece stands for Jean Vignaud, a known decorator and manufacturer who operated in Limoges, France.
  Historical Context

  The Maker: Jean Vignaud was active during the early to mid-20th century (specifically noted around 19121938).

  The Mark: This specific gilded monogram is an overglaze decorating mark, meaning it was added by the studio that applied the final color and gold design, rather than the factory that made the plain white porcelain "blank".

  Design Style: Vignaud pieces are highly recognizable for their use of cobalt blue and heavy 22k gold gilding, often featuring romantic "courting couple" scenes inspired by French Rococo artists like Fragonard.

  While many Limoges marks use simple text, this stylised "JV" was a signature branding for his studio's high-end decorative giftware

  Factors Influencing Your Plate's Price

  The Stand: Since your image shows a gold wire stand, this adds roughly R50R100 to the total value as it makes the piece "display-ready" for a buyer.

  Artwork: If the front features a "Courting Couple" (scène galante) that is clearly detailed or signed, it will sit at the higher end of the R800 range.

  Gold Quality: Jean Vignaud is known for heavy 22kt gold accents. If the gold "lace" border is thick and unbroken, it significantly increases the desirability.
