Veteran with a question, Limoges

Hello everyone, thank you for taking the time to read over this. I'm trying to figure out if this JP Limoges France is real and what it's classified under. I have been using AI which typically helps, that's why I feel this is a fake. Any help you can give me is much appreciated. I'm new at this but i enjoy the mystery of it, after Bagram I try to keep myself busy, I do laser engraving and different things. Thank you for any info you might have.

Thank you 4 your service .....

 

The W mark is for John Wanamaker https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Wanamaker

 

That was a nice retailer at one time!

 

Yes, it was. Carriage trade. Not the kind of thing anyone would fake. You can find your pattern on replacements.com which is a good resource of identifying patterns and getting an idea of retail pricing. The site identifies your piece as Pattern #POY394. With that information you may be able to find other pieces on the internet.

What a gorgeous sugar bowl! Where did you find it? As others have said, it's definitely the real deal, not fake. The W mark is for Wanamakers which you now know was an upscale retailer. The second wreath mark by Pouyat was only used on their best wares. I don't know what you plan to do with it, but unfortunately, the odd sugar bowl no matter how exceptional is not worth a lot on resale. Certainly, it's worth preserving however.
