this is all i no and not sure how accurate it is would love to no more if anyone knows anything..Very nice items. I would guess them to be late Victorian 1880s to 1900s or so. Seems my late Grandmother had something like these in her store as they would have been my Great Great Grand Parents as they owned the store before she took over in the 1970s. They sure would dress up any room that had antique furniture in it.there are no marking of any kind on these items
Stunning!

The ladies are the same, only the colours and the edge of the plaques are different. One pair is said to be a reproduction of a real Victorian plaques. I don't know are yours original or repro, maybe somebody else can tell you more.
