These small plates are beautiful but have no maker on the back. They are my grandmothers so they would have been purchased in the early 1900's unless she inherited them from her family. I would like to know the pattern name.
I have a matching pitcher i found recently: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/146985-white-porcelain-pitcher-with-lavendar-ap
Thank you. Replacements has just let me know that they can not identify the pattern. I think my plate has a deeper blue and the edge of the dish is different. I will just call it Grandmother's Mystery Plate.
Looks similar to some dishes I had. Kovels.com called it Adderley Chelsea grape and says it was made before 1840. Most pieces unmarked. Pattern sometimes called Aynsley or Grandmother.
I agree with janetm.
Thank you. If it was made before 1840, it would have been from her mother or even her grandmother. It may have been brought from England when they immigrated. Now I am eager to learn even more.
