HI everyone.I need some help with this plate.It measures 11½ inches across.Has a pattern of leaves and cherries on the underside, in relief, around the edge. I was thinking it could be of European origin, BWDIK. LOL .I have looked everywhere and haven't found anything to match.Does anyone know anything?
TIA Julie.

ok, I jump into it with my very first thought:
Fenne Saarland AUGUSTE pattern - but :cry: it is NOT :cry:
Dear Julie, we sometimes contribute here just saying what it is not... may very well lead further...
-
Julie, unfortunately the close up of pattern is exactly the same photo as in the thread - could you please change that?
Are there small leaves around the stand?
-
Thanks for the reply Pamela.And whoops on the close up link.I thought I had corected that before I posted, but seems I didn't. :oops: here is the correct one. On the 4 seams travelling from the centre to to outer egde, are like a fine stem with a couple of tiny leaves.

IMHO it looks like a piece of "depression glass" from Indonesia. The very prominent mould lines and seemingly lack of finish on them is a characteristic of this type of glass. I have not seen this particular pattern before.
Look closely at the piece for a moulded mark often very small.

grayhorse.Thanks for your input on this plate. I have looked all over this piece and can not see any molded marks to indicate that this is from Indonesia.No "made in Indonesia " or "KIG" marks can be seen.
