<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 11601528, member: 308&quot;]True, my bad, I made a jump there I shouldn&#039;t have made based on a perceived similiarity in decoration. Most likely all three were decorated by B &amp; D but not necessarily. I think we are safe in assuming all three are Limoges. </p><p><br /></p><p>The book is clearer on this second point. The Collector&#039;s Encyclopedia of Limoges Porcelain on pg. 28 reads, &quot;Bawo and Dotter was established in the 1860&#039;s in New York City for the purpose of importing china, notably Limoges porcelain for the American consumer. The firm set up its own decorating studio in Limoges during the 1870s which was named The Elite Works. The company did not begin manufacturing its own china until 1896 (d&#039;Albis and Romanet, p. 126). From the 1870s through the 1890s, the company decorated the white ware made by other Limoges factories. Many examples of Bawo and Dotter&#039;s decoration and porcelain are found in a variety of items.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
