F. Belleri, Limoges Table Lighter, ca 1934


This French porcelain table lighter decorated with delicate hand painted colorful floral bouquets was assembled by F. Belleri & Co ca. in the 1933.

The semi-automatic wick lighter insert is unmarked. It is made of brass and is quite robust. The white glazed base of the lighter was entirely made by hand in Limoges, France which is known for its 19th-century Limoges porcelain. Very clean decoration.
Marked on the bottom of the porcelain base:
