Interest in Egg Plates

(1/1)

Connie:
I found this website on egg plates the other day which helped me identify 2 plates which I had, suspected were modern but couldn't find.

I dug it up again to confirm some info that I posted to Doris about her Sandwich pattern piece.

Thought it might be useful to others here -

Tigerchips:
I didn't even know they eggzisted (sorry).  :oops:

Anne:
Thanks Connie, that is a really interesting site. I like egg plates - my mother has a lovely carnival one which I must get around to taking a photo of sometime.

:D:oops::D
I didn't know they eggisted either! I'd have (mistakenly) identified it as an oyster plate! I assume the internal section it what distinguishes it. What is the internal section designed to accommodate? Toasted soldiers, or something else?

Anne:
There are two types that I know of - one for oysters and one for eggs. The oyster ones usually have slightly larger shell-shaped depressions I think. The egg ones have smaller ovoid depressions. They are sometimes called egg and cress plates... so now you know what goes in the middle Sue.  :wink:
