This porcelain dinner plate was made by Tressemannes & Vogt of Limoges, France, in 1892. The plate was part of a state china service first ordered for the White House during Benjamin Harrison's presidency, and subsequently reordered during the William McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt administrations. The service featured a dark blue border with corn and goldenrod decorations, a version of the arms of the United States, and 44 gold stars representing the number of states in the Union when Harrison purchased the china.
