• Condition: There is chipping on the outer edge which does effect the very edge of the lobe. There are 4 other small chips and tiny fleabite on the underside of the rim all well hidden. There are no cracks or hairlines. There are no notable marks from use and storage. The gold is excellent with only minor rubbing. There is light shelf wear on the bottom as expected. While not perfect, the flaws are well hidden and it's an absolutely stunning piece.

Schleiger 55 aka Drop Rose is perhaps Haviland's most popular pattern with it's large rose chain and single rose dropping toward the center. This piece was likely sold originally as an Ice Cream Tray or Dish, though it's shape could be used for multiple purposes at the table. The bottom is marked "Haviland France" in green underglaze, Mark I, which was used between 1894 and 1931 and decorator marked "Haviland & Co. Limoges" in red, Mark C, used between 1889 and 1931.
