Hello dear friends, I'm offering. LIMOGES COFFEE/TEA PORCELAIN SERVICE SET c. Touze, Lemaître Frères & Blancher Limoges. The story of the Touze family in the porcelain business dates back to 1863 when Michel Touze and his associate Soudanas founded a decorating studio in Limoges at the boulevard des Petits Carmes which Touze continued alone from 1869, moving to brand new facilities the following year. In 1878 his widow took charge of the family business, followed by their son a few years later. T & Cie was used from 1901 to 1913. During World War I the company ceased activity. (Touze, Lemaître Frères & Blancher) was created after the war, in 1918. The manufacture produced tea, coffee and table sets in several shapes. Some patterns were entirely hand painted. The manufactory participated in the 1925 Modern Decorative Arts Exhibition, in the 1931 Colonial Exhibition and in the 1937 International Exhibition. Like many other factories in the Limoges region, the company ceased activity during World War II. From 1950 onwards the former facilities of T. Were used by the porcelain decorators Georges Jammet and Henri Seignolles who founded J. Seignolles, a factory that still produces high quality porcelain manufactured and decorated exclusively in Limoges.

VERY GOOD CONDITION FOR THOSE YEARS!!! Please, be sure to view all photos carefully below as they are included as part of the item description! I sell antique and vintage collectible stuff - unique items that have history, and may show signs of this - it's part of their charm. I try to describe any obvious faults as truthfully as I can.
However, as most of my items are 100 years old, they will often bear the traces of a previous life.
