THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN MY AUCTION THIS AUCTION IS FOR NEAR 100 YEAR OLD THEODORE HAVILAND & CO LIMOGES FRANCE "COROMANDEL" PATTERN AMONG THE RARER PIECES OF THIS PATTERN 15 INCH TURKEY SIZESERVING PLATTER ART DECO STYLE!!WITH GRAVY WELL HARD TO FIND! A wise woman once said, "A complete service for 12 should always have 13-14 of each piece. You never know!" and "You can never be too rich, too thin, or have too much Haviland....." Haviland & Co. is a manufacturer of Limoges porcelain. David Haviland was an American businessman from New York dealing with porcelain. While seeking out new business interests, he arrived in Limoges, France and by 1842, he was able to send his first shipment of Limoges porcelain to the United States. He was also key in adopting a new process by which to decorate porcelain pieces developed in 1873. In 1890, David Haviland's son, Théodore Haviland, built a very large and prominent factory in Limoges and introduced a variety of new processes for firing and decorating porcelain pieces. The Haviland company has since been overseen by grandson William Haviland, and great-grandson Theodore Haviland II. Haviland & Co. is still operating as Haviland Company, though the facilities are now modernized and now sell silverware, crystal, and giftware in addition to porcelain. Haviland identification is difficult as there are over 30,000 patterns and variations. To make it harder, most patterns do not have factory-given names. Only about 6,000 have been identified and cataloged in the Schleiger system. For those "named" patterns, many pieces left the factory without the proper pattern name marked on it. Even when whole sets are purchased, you will find pieces in the set without the pattern name or for pieces with multiple parts, some of the parts may lack the pattern name or even the Haviland mark. Thank you! Mr. Haviland!! THE MARK OF QUALITY This fine china was part of an inventory removed from the estate of an avid antique china collector after she died and the owners sold the home. This rare and very lovely china is about 100 years old. Most of this collection revolves around Theodore Haviland's early 1920's - 1930's china in the "PILGRIM" shape, all made out of the same shape molds, just decorated with different designs. This auction is for a very hard to find piece of Theodore Haviland china as described. The pattern name is COROMANDEL. It is in the Haviland Pilgrim form. This is a simply enchanting set designed by Haviland & Company of Haviland Pottery in Limoges, France. If you check around, you will find magazine ads for this pattern dating to the mid-1920's. 15 INCH TURKEY SIZEWITH GRAVY WELL LIKE NEW! This is part of the Hostess serving pieces, usually referred to as a 15 INCH TURKEY SIZE SERVING PLATTER serving dish. Platter - a large oval plate used as a serving piece for food items (round platter is referred to as a Chop Plate). A platter with troughs formed into the bottom to resemble bare tree branches attached to a central trunk, at one end of which is a shallow well. Such a configuration allows the juices of meats being cut on the platter to drain away from the meat and store the Au jus. The Haviland Pilgrim Shape series, platters came in 3 sizes, small 11 1/4" x 8 3/4", medium 13 1/2" x 10 1/2" and large 15 1/2" x 12 1/2". SMALL, CHICKEN OR MEAT LOAF SIZE MEDIUM, HAM OR ROAST SIZE THIS IS A LARGE, TURKEY SIZE PLATTER When evaluating dinnerware china, always remember, for every 12 plates, cups and bowls etc., only ONE serving piece per kind, was made for each set. That is what makes these particularly hard to find and expensive. This hard to find piece would not be found in what would be considered a "Standard" set of china. A piece like this would only be found in "Deluxe" sets or sold separate. They were among an estate's china set consisting of Haviland COROMANDEL and Haviland Ganga and others. If you look at them, they are almost alike in many ways. They were produced about the same time, 1920's. They have the same basic Haviland Pilgrim shape. The borders, floral design and birds are very similar, particularly on the serving pieces. The pieces offered in this listing are all COROMANDEL. Haviland's Coromandel, the twin to Haviland's Ganga pattern. The only difference between the two is Coromandel has a cream band around it, while Ganga has an all white body. Same shapes, same designs, same edge trim. This auction is for a very hard to find piece of Theodore Haviland china. The pattern on this piece is called "COROMANDEL". The bottom is marked "Theodore Haviland, Limoges, France" Condition: This piece of vintage china is about 90+ years old. A miracle it survived this long. See Pics.
