<p>[QUOTE="kentworld, post: 9562174, member: 35"]So, in the 20th c Limoges produced a lot of blank porcelain for people who painted on china as a hobby. We call them china hobbyist painters and L S Fluckey was talented and seems to be a bit better known. However, hobbyist signatures are different from the china painter artists who were employed by the well-known factories. Generally, artist signed pieces from those factories didn't really begin until the late 19th c. Some of those artist signed pieces will fetch a premium. There is a difference between amateur hobbyists and professional china painters which is why the signature on your set doesn't make a lot of difference in value. I would imagine that you want to sell the set as complete and not piece by piece. Shipping would cost too much, so local venues may be your best bet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
