History: This soup plate was manufactured by the American Limoges China Company of Sebring, Ohio, and belongs to their “Triumph” line, specifically the Aristocrat pattern. The pattern code "S530" was typically used for designs produced around the mid-20th century, particularly the 1940s to early 1950s.
 
 
The plate is made of semi-porcelain and features a transfer-printed floral design with a romantic-style bouquet in burgundy, blush pink, and green, accented with gold trim applied in a classical scroll motif. The edge gilding is specified as “Warranted 22K Gold,” a marketing detail used to elevate its appeal in American households during the post-WWII period.
 
 
American Limoges was known for stylish, affordable porcelain-like dinnerware aimed at middle-class families. Though the name “Limoges” might suggest French manufacture, this item is definitively American, as indicated by the clear “Made in U.S.A.” mark.
 
 
This piece remains a collectible example of mid-century American dinnerware. While the market for American Limoges is not as high as European porcelain, collectors appreciate these pieces for their charm and decorative appeal.
