I was recently given 12 of these plates (photo attached) that have been in my mother’s family since the Civil War and were a wedding gift to a long ago relation. Kovels has a listing that is similar, but not an exact match I don’t think “Phoenix Bird, Allover Lace, Scalloped, Cream, Pat, 1874, 9 In.”.
My plates have a scalloped edge with a basket weave design and are 9 1/2″ diameter, but have the phoenix bird and are cream.
I have searched online and have been unable to find any photos that look similar.
Does anyone have an idea to pattern and value?
Thanks very much!
Here is a photo of the back..
I have not been able to find a photo that matches my plates.. Just the description on the Kovels site which which matches “sort of”.
There is the Copeland Spode stamp, the Made For Ovington Bors New York stamp and two stamps that are pressed in, not inked. One of the is the number 25 centered under a capital U. The other is Copeland Spode Rd No 90067. Does this assist in identifying the pattern?
Thank you so much for your kind help!
