I found this last week in a Goodwill store in another town I was in. It matches my dishes I inherited from my grandmother. Seems like I get all the dishes no one else cares for. But that's ok, they are sentimental and I love the delicate feminine floral patterns. This is a Homer Laughlin Virginia Rose pattern in "Fluffy Rose", H 48 N 8 made in USA. It is china and measures 11 1/2" x 8 3/4". It is in perfect condition, and looks never used. It was the only one I saw so I grabbed it for $10, but not without my usual asking for a lower price. Said it had not been there long. My grandmothers dishes are in the very top of my cabinets, and I will get them on here at another time. Suffering from the flu this week. But, her dishes were well used, and I always remember eating on them when at her house. She never put her things up from the grandchildren.
