Offered is a beautiful early 20th century hand-painted porcelain lemonade or cider service, artist signed “Graham” and decorated in the American studio-painted / Chicago style tradition, circa 1910s.
This 6-piece set includes:
• 1 T&V Limoges France tray
• 1 Vienna Austria pitcher
• 4 Vienna Austria cups
The set features a striking harvest corn motif with warm orange, cream, brown, and gold tones. Each piece has hand-painted corn decoration, soft airbrushed-style background shading, and subtle gilt trim. The tray is clearly signed Graham.
This type of set reflects the early 1900s American practice of importing fine European porcelain blanks from makers such as Limoges and Vienna, then decorating them by hand in American studios. The cohesive painting, palette, and subject matter strongly fit the Chicago studio-painted porcelain style from the Art Nouveau period. I have also been told by knowledgeable collectors that Graham is associated with studio-painted porcelain and is referenced in relation to Chicago-style hand-painted work.
