Antique CDF GDM Plate, 8.5 Inch, Sailing Ship and Seaweed 18465

This antique hand-painted plate from Limoges, France, was produced by Charles Field Haviland in collaboration with the GDM workshop (Gerart Dufrasisseix & Morel).

Featuring a maritime motif of a sailing ship and seaweed, the delicate hand-painted brushwork reflects the classic elegance of late 19th-century French Limoges porcelain. Ideal for display as a wall art plate or within a collector's cabinet, it brings a rich sense of history and artistry to any interior space.
