Vtg Bernardaud Tea Cup & Saucer Plate Limoges France Colonial Captains BR2

Description

- Vtg L. Bernardaud & Co. Tea Cup & Saucer Plate Limoges France Colonial Captains
- This is a rare, unique piece, which has an image of three colonial captains dancing, and a woman in clogs, and she appears to be bringing food to the 3 dancing captains, who are likely drunk.
- On both the cup and saucer it has writing in cursive in French which translate in English to “In passing through Lorraine with my clogs”. And on just the saucer, it also says something else in French which translates in English to “Met 3 captains with my clogs Dondaine oh oh oh with my clogs”. This translation was done using an app, so it’s possible it’s a little off (see photos).
- Size: saucer has a diameter of about 6 3/4 inches, and cup has a top edge diameter of about 4 11/16 inches.
- Condition: very good overall, gold rim has a little wear, the tea cup has a very tiny gash? on the base and there’s some wear to the base’s rims, but other than that these pieces look great (see photos).
Since the condition of an item is based on a person's opinion, please view all the photos carefully to determine the condition for yourself.  The color of an item/s may appear different in person due to the lighting in the photographs.  Any measurements of an item/s I provide are always approximations, due to rounding as well as other factors.  I NEVER use stock photos, so what you see in the photos, is the exact item/s you are buying.  If a ruler, tape measure, or coin (unless a coin is what is for sale in the description) is used in any of the photos, it is for sizing purposes only, and not included.  My family and I are all non-smokers, so the items I sell have been in a non-smoking environment the entire time I've owned them.
I usually will ship same or next business day after receiving the payment.  Feel free to message me with any questions or concerns before buying, and I'll respond as soon as I can.  Thanks for looking, and I will gladly combined shipping costs to save you money, so feel free to check out my other auctions for something you'd like to purchase for yourself, or as a gift.  Happy Buying! :)
