It is a limited edition plate made in 1980 of just 5000 and is the 6th plate out of 6 in "The Children of Renoir" collection. It measures approx. 8 1/4 inches in diameter with a rich border of 23 karat gold, hand painted over delicate embossing. This plate comes new in box with papers and is in excellent condition, never having been used or displayed.
