The maroon printed mark, "Ch.PILLIVUYT & Cie/PARIS/EXP 1867/MEDAILLE D'OR" is printed inside a dotted oval under the base. Charles Pillivuyt was a well-established porcelain manufacturer. He won the gold medal in 1867, as is mentioned in his mark. A later mark adds another medal in 1878, so it is likely that this piece was made sometime between the two dates.
Diameter: 8 and 7/8 inches (22.5 cm)
Condition: No chips, cracks, hairlines or repairs. There is light wear to the gilding on the rim.
They look good enough to eat.
