This is the "East and West Stones Marquetry" model created in 1989.
It is made up of 32 octagonal pieces for 8 guests:
- 7 large plates (plus 1 broken and glued), width 28.8 cm.
- 8 appetizers plates, width 26.4 cm.
- 8 dessert plates, width 24 cm.
- 8 bread plates, width 16.1 cm.
The set has been used very little, it is almost new and in very good condition: almost no scratches, 1 large plate broken and glued back together and 2 dessert plates each have a chip (barely visible, one in a corner and another below).
Each plate is discreetly signed Hermès in the decoration, as well as below: Hermès Porcelaine (or Hermès Porcelaine Paris) and H Limoges France (or Hermès H Paris) and also the name of the model.
