Title: Question about a plate
Post by: ssf2 on October 31, 2016, 11:38:43 AM

I have a CFH double-handled plate measuring about 9 inches across without the handles, 10 1/4 inches with handles. It is not glazed on the bottom, and the bottom is completely flat unlike any other plates I have for serving food, which seems odd. I was wondering if maybe it is a dresser or vanity tray? There is only the blank mark and no decorator mark on the bottom, maybe because it is not glazed?

Thats a Haviland plate so would not have a decorators mark for that type pattern !!  I would guess its probably a cake server !!
