This porcelain oyster plate was produced in France by Haviland & Co. Limoges between 1878 and 1889. It is 8 3/4 inches in diameter. It is molded with 5 wells and is often referred to as “a turkey plate” since the shell configuration resembles a turkey’s tail. The plate is decorated with a factory transfer design of sea creatures and sea weed. The decoration is hand colored. The ground color is ivory. This shape is the one that was used for the “White House China” service for President Hayes.
