Saturday's consignment store find. A miniture teacup designed by C Ahrenfeldt in Limoges France for the Crowell & Hubbard Co in Cleveland ohio.
From what I can find, Crowell & Hubbard Co took on that name in 1879 [source]. C Ahrenfeldt was active in Limoges from 1884 until 1969 [source]. Based on the markings I found on other items from the 1950s, and based on the age of other items from the same collector which ended up at the considgnment shop, I believe this is most likely from sometime between the 1890s-1930s, but I'm far from an expert! Most of my tea cup collection is Japanese or English. I think this is my first piece of French porcelain.
