ReviewsSince the publication of the first edition of this book in 1980, interest in Limoges porcelain has increased tremendously. This revised edition is arranged by company and/or mark. The history of the Limoges porcelain industry begins the book, followed by the histories, marks, and examples of the major factories, unidentified Limoges companies, and even miniatures. An index and cross reference to companies, initials, and symbols, are provided. -John Alvey
