I have a dinner set for 8 white with a pink & white rose decoration over spiky "conifer like" greenery (grey ends), including a few mauve violet-like flowers .
The blanks are very smooth, without scallops or embossing; indented backmark is "M" per your lists (plus 2-stars below the T & H) . Decoration is as "The Porcelain Pond" webpage top left hand (an underlined Theodore (plus) Haviland, Limoges (plus) FRANCE ), with an entwined "M C & Co." below in the same red-brown.
Serving dishes have simple gold trimmed handles.
Any help to ID will be appreciated.
Thanks to Cathy Grammer for a very swift earlier positive ID.
