A refined and elegant antique Lenox porcelain pedestal compote with matching underplate, produced for the prestigious Philadelphia retailers The Bailey, Banks and Biddle. This coordinated two‑piece set showcases Lenox’s early 20th‑century craftsmanship at its finest, combining American porcelain quality with a decorative style inspired by Asian export motifs.

The compote and plate both feature a soft cream center framed by a wide gradient blue border, finished with hand‑applied gold trim. At the heart of each piece is an exquisitely detailed floral still life, depicting a vase overflowing with blossoms, scrolls, and symbolic decorative objects, an aesthetic nod to Chinese famille rose and Japanese Kutani influences.

The pedestal base is accented with gold banding and a deep, contrasting foot, giving the piece a strong, elevated presence suitable for display or service. The underside bears the Lenox wreath mark, along with retailer hallmarks, confirming its high‑end provenance. Additional hand‑painted pattern numbers (“1396/W27.F”) appear on both pieces, indicating a custom‑ordered or limited‑production design. It measures 3 1/8" tall by 10 3/4" wide, and it is in good antique/used condition with some nicks on the gold painting of the foot (see last set of photos).

This is a sophisticated, decorator‑worthy set, ideal for collectors of early Lenox, American Belle Époque porcelain, or fine tableware commissioned by historic luxury retailers.
