Hello,
I got these plates a few years ago when my grandfather passed and have no idea where they were made, what company, or what they might be worth. I don’t know if I should use them for something or keep them safe and wrapped up. I would appreciate any help.
4.5 inch Octagonal plates. All the same pattern. [img size=320]https://kovels.com/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/photo_11_resize.jpg[/img]
hmm…i’m an antique collector and trader but i’ve seen these writings before. If i have to make an educated guess, i’d say it’s most likely Japanese. given that it once belonged to your grandfather, i’d cherish it. place it somewhere you can see (but out of children’s reach). that way, you’ll always remember him:)
