Re: Two Limoges tabletop lighters

Hi,

I looked for some info on the Limoges France mark you have and couldn't pinpoint a date.

However, they are of a Peacock pattern and you can easily verify that Limoges has that exact one on many of their creations.

I did track down the exact items you have (two is unusual) on eBay.  That seller tried twice to sell one without sucess.  Here's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1950-60s-French-Hand-Painted-Limoges-Ta…?

They were offering the item at $29.95 with an additional $7.95 shipping.

Depending on what you paid for the pair you could come in at less.  I find that free shipping is the latest big thing for buyers.

Additionally they never tried to mention the Peacock pattern and how it could match someone's collection of other Limoges Peacock items.

Good luck.

I hope this helped.

-Pete
