The LP monogram in the border is for King Louis Philippe. His reign was fro 1830 - 1848. and I believe this pattern was commissioned by him for Sevres to make for him at the Royal Palace. Not sure if this was there everyday china or for entertaining. Chateau de F. Bleau is the Fontainebleau Castle, south East of Paris. All the French Kings and Queens spent time there, vacationing, and entertaining. Napolean lived there.

It is from the famous Service de Chasse Fontainebleau aka the Royal Hunt or Hunting Service of King Louis Philippe of France. The set is superbly decorated with arabesques of foliage with different animals in between and three oval panel with trophies, animals or other emblems surrounded by a nice gold design, a diamond shaped panel with the Royal Cypher of Louis Philippe (initials LP under a crown), a geometric gold band around the well of the plate and a gold star design in the center of the plate. The animals elude to the hunting part that the Chateau was so famous for. The rim design has the colors except the outlines all hand painted unlike the later copies.

The service was initially ordered in 1836 and the first pieces were delivered in 1839 all the way into the early 1840s. It was then augmented with more pieces until 1847.

Not sure if this item is still part of the original order commissioned by a Monarch (Louis Philippe ) or the augmented part of the royal order, or a later copy made in 19th or early 20th centuries, but either way even if and when it is just Sevres “Style” they still are rare pieces of porcelain art.

This note is added to all listings even if and when I am 100 % sure they are original ones. Now it is up to a potential buyer to investigate before purchasing and making their own informed decision.

Meanwhile, please feel free to share your options and negotiate price by sending me your best offers but be assured that no one can intimidate me to reduce a price on any original or potentially not original Sevres “style” items in a rude way.

Appears to be Hand Painted and maybe the gold star in center of plate was decal or transfer and currently is missing almost completely.

For this reason starting offer is only $1000, while some other sellers list each hunting plate separately for almost $4000 each (that is $16,000.00 for 4 plates).

Happy offerding!
