Apologies for my late reply m and thanks for digging out those links.

Looks like Salviati circa 1900 to me.  Who else could make an aventurine rim like that?

Ivo you were spot on. ;D Bought this plate on ebay and it matches the size and profile of the opalescent plates exactly, even has a heat finished pontil mark and those soft colours are in keeping. I am converted.

Sowerby would have been nice, not this time but maybe one day!
