Hi Henry,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
Are these marked with the maker's mark? I don't see one in the photo included here.
Also, what are the diameters?
Thanks to confirm!
Delia
Thanks, Henry, for checking and letting me know the dimensions. This is a really lovely set that has considerable merit even without knowing the maker.
At 8 inches diameter, these are luncheon plates (dinner plates are typically between 10-11 inches)
Based on the information and photos provided, and subject to examination, this is:
A set of 12 hand-painted and parcel gilt luncheon plates
