20TH Century Limoge Old Abbey Individual Oyster Serving Dish measuring 8 1/4" X 9 1/4" and 2 1/4" in depth. This is a very unique piece that I have never seen before. I am very aware of the value of the different factories in Limoge,France that produced the many different companies such as Haviland and many others. Oyster Plates are very collectible especially on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. This is a form that I have not seen before. It appears to me to be a oyster server for Two Oysters in their shells. We have seen the many oyster plates attributed to many companies in Limoge, France. They usually measured about 8" in diameter and had six to eight opening to put a complete oyster shell in. This is a oyster server for only two oysters. It is marked Old Abbey Limoges on the bottom and also Limoges,France. Abbey is one of many companies in Limoge that date from the late 19TH. Century. Good Condition.
