Hello, I have looked high and low for information regarding Lebeau Porcelaine. This is what I have: Lebeau Porcelaine (also known as la Francaise Porcelaine, a division of SAXON CHINA or FRENCH –SAXON CHINA Co, Sebring, Ohio, USA – ca 1907-1920s Can anyone guide me to a more informative arena??? I have a plate with the Lebeau Porcelaine mark on it. Dated circa 1897 by a family member who carried it 'to Nebraska'. Thank you, Kate

Hi Kate, As you already know, you have a piece of flow blue made by one of the few potteries in the U.S. that made flow blue, the Sebring Pottery. The best information that I could find is when you google the information that you entered. The various marks for Sebring Pottery can be found in Kovel's New Dictionary of Marks. If you would like to e-mail me a photo of your plate, I could possibly help you a little better. Jan

Jan, Thank you for your reply. This plate has no chips. There is some wear within the blue ...and it looks like the yellow color within the rose pattern is a mistake or an overflow??? I appreciate any information you can divulge!!! There is a peice of tape which upon is written: 1897 Fairbury, Nebraska....though we aren't sure of the town name. It belonged to a family member. They did live in Nebraska prior to 1900. Please send me an email where I can send photos. The image link won't allow my jpegs. Thank you!!!! Kate
