Rooted in the refined tradition of Limoges porcelain at the turn of the 20th century, this elegant plate was produced by Haviland & Co., renowned for its luminous porcelain body and timeless craftsmanship.
The surface is delicately adorned with hand-painted roses, featuring softly layered petals that transition from blush pink to deep crimson, set against a gentle, atmospheric background.
The composition is thoughtfully balanced, with graceful use of negative space that enhances its quiet sophistication and painterly depth.
The underside bears the green “Haviland France” mark, dating the piece to approximately 1894-1931, a period known for fine porcelain blanks decorated by skilled artists.
Signed “T. Johnson,” the decoration reflects the work of an independent studio decorator, highlighting the individuality and hand-crafted nature of the piece.
此件瓷盤誕生於19世紀末至20世紀初，利摩日瓷器的巔峰時期，為 Haviland & Co. 的作品。
Haviland 在 19 世紀以精緻瓷器聞名，長期為歐洲與美國上流社會打造餐瓷。這類手繪花卉作品，展現其細膩純淨的瓷質與一貫優雅的風格，也正是當時生活美感的一部分。
當時的手繪花卉，多由專職畫師完成，每一件在細節與筆觸上每一件在筆觸與色彩層次上皆看得見其細節，因此保留了難以取代的溫度。盤面以手工描繪盛開玫瑰，花瓣層層暈染，由柔粉至深紅自然過渡，搭配淡雅柔霧的背景色彩，呈現細膩而富有空氣感的光影變化。
底部印有「Haviland France」綠字款，可追溯至約1894-1931年間，為當時白瓷胎結合手工彩繪裝飾的代表性製作形式。盤面署名「T. Johnson」，為當時裝飾畫師之簽名，體現每件作品皆為手工繪製的獨特性與藝術價值。
