Can someone help me identify the pattern on this plate?  My research on marks4antiques.com suggests that this plate may be authentic and from the "Vienna Imperial and Royal Porcelain Manufactory". This site says that authentic plates from this factory would not have been signed, nor dated and would not be decorated with mythological or historical scenes. In addition, the beehive would not be symmetrical and would need to be under-glaze.

I can not tell if this beehive is under-glaze?  I have just begun learning about the various antiques in my home from my husbands grandfather.  His grandfather was from Hungary and was an antique collector in the 1950's. This may have been an old plate from his ancestors.

Please help with any knowledge you may have. I searched for several hours for this exact beehive mark but only saw one similar and that was of C.M. Hutschenreuther.
