    Description

    This posting is for a beautiful pair of rimmed soup bowls, with the monogram M. They are approximately 9" in diameter.  Please feel free to ask questions as I am not an expert on this company and had to research it's history.
    Backstamp:
    The stamp located on the bottom of the plates contains

    CH. PILLIVUYT & Cie PARIS, indicating a production period before 1867. After the company was awarded the Gold Metal in the Gran Prix of 1867, the date of 1867 and “medaille d’or” was
    included in the backstamp.
    Brief History:
    Porcelain factory Ch. Pillivuyt & Cie was founded by Jean Louis Richard Pillivuyt in 1818 in Foëcy, France.
    After initial success and associated growth, the manufacturing facility was relocated to Mehun-sur-Yevre in 1854. During this span of time the company was able to retain and enhance their unmatched knowledge, experience and know-how of its porcelain master craftsmen for a period of over 200 years.
    The company proceeded to became the largest producer of fine porcelain products in the world and won gold medals at International Exhibitions and World Fairs of 1823, 1853, 1863, 1878, and Gran Prix events in 1867, 1889, and 1900.
    The World Wars ruined Ch. Pillivuyt & Cie financially. The remnants of the company were sold and modernized by the new Swiss owners and continues to produce products containing a PILLIVUYT  stamp. The modern available Pillivuyt porcelain products have no relationship to the exquisite Ch. Pillivuyt & Cie creations produced before WW I.
