Gold Limoges
Another heirloom passed down from my Great~Grandmother, this 22 karat gold adorned platter was her mother's~in~law. Mom and I are guessing it's from around the 1920's. I like to wonder what savory meals were lovingly presented on this warm, friendly dish.
I tried "Google ing" Limoges Lyceum Yellow and didn't come up with anything! There is some Blue, Green and even Rose, but even Replacements.com didn't list yellow. Don't know if it is more rare or soon fell out of favor with comtomers and was dropped from manufacture. There are also some listed on Ebay, but again, not yellow! But since it is yellow ~ fits in for your "Yellow Week"! :~}
I love the Lord who is the Master Gardener, my beautiful family, my humble home, and all things organic, natural, and ancient.
"I AM the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. I am the vine, ye are the branches: he that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing." John 15: 1 & 5
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. Amen
