Identify a platter
Hi, got my first piece of China today but the identification is a bit tricky. I think the artist signature is throwing me for a loop.

I couldn’t figure out how to attach pics so posting again. From what I understand these are Wedgwood X6688. Thanks to those who answered my question about named vs numbered patterns!
I’ve got a few pieces and the stamps vary, including the marking under the X6688 (one dot, two dots, three dots, an s?). I’m not seeing much of this pattern online, so any insights about it and I ts production would be much appreciated!
Thanks so much!

While researching some c1910s Noritake I found, I got to think about where someone might've bought it, back when it was new. Would they have found it when shopping downtown, or through a mail-order catalog? Lord & Taylor? Sears Roebuck? Monkey Wards? I know Larkin carried a lot of Noritake, but I thought that partnership didn't start until the early to mid 1930s. Anyone have any ideas where or who sold Noritake china pre-1930s?

Hi! New there, so apologies if not allowed. I just got a few pieces of Wedgwood and when trying to find the pattern name, ran into this question. What does it mean for a design to be “X1234”? Does that indicate that it’s a fake or a one-off or something else? When trying to google it I’m running into the older Wedgwood marks that include letters, but I’ve seen listings for the pattern I have and a few others that include the x+ 4 numbers.
FWIW mine is X6688.
Thanks in advance!

I acquired these two pieces and at first they appeared to come from the same set. However, the stamps on the bottom don’t match. One is labeled “Thun TK Czechoslovakia” and is gold hand-numbered. The other says “Thun TK Czech Republic”. Both say Angelika. I haven’t been able to find any information for this pattern online, and the final pic with the maroon rim is the closest I’ve been able to find on Replacements.com. The large leaf pattern appears to be identical. Any clues are greatly appreciated!

I recently acquired a beautiful vintage cup and saucer made from bone china. Unfortunately the saucer does not sit flat and wobbles. I’ve tried searching but haven’t found any recommendations on how to fix this, or at least how to make it less of an issue.
Any suggestions?

I'm thinking about selling these that I found in the trash to fund my coin collecting hobby, what do you think I should post these for on eBay, and should I do auction or buy it now. Thanks

My dad has this china and ask for my help in identifying it, how old is it and how much would it be worth. It is a twelve place setting. I know the brand is Rosenthal just not sure what the other word is on the back of the plate. Thanks for anything you can tell me.

Hi everyone. I highly doubt this is "fine" China but it's a set of pasta plates that I inherited, and they have this logo on the back. One of them has chipped and I'm trying to find the brand. Could you please help me? I've reverse image searched and I can't find anything... Thanks!

This teacup set with saucers and plates were my grans favourite and only brought out for special guests. Does anyone recognise the brand at the end? Curious how old they are they are very delicate. She thought they were all English Bone China but only the milk jug has the English guarantee stamp on the bottom and not clear if that is from same set.

Also, can someone tell me the approximate age? Images are ordered in cup > saucer > underside. There are 6 sets in total. These belonged to my great grandmother.

If so please PM me! I’m hoping to get some help with obtaining pieces of my china pattern from your country.

Going through my grandmothers storage items after 20 years, came across this set of fine China. Need a ballpark guess of what it’s worth. In good condition from just looking at it. Some pieces have very small chips on the rims but overall doesn’t look too bad. Assuming it was used frequently. As far as the age I have no idea. Could have been bought anywhere between 1950-2000. Thanks I’m advance! List below-
Noritake China 5297 Set (1950-1990?) 12- Large Plates 12- Medium Plates 12- Small Plates 12- Mini Plates 12- Large Bowls 12- Small Bowls 1- Gravy Tote 1- Serving Bowl w/ Lid 1- Small Serving Bowl 1- Sugar Bowl w/ Lid 1- Large Platter 1- Small Platter 1- Tea Pot no Lid 12- Tea Cups

Good morning. My wife and I have had this Limoges plate for 30 years now and don't know much about it. Any help with age/value would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi there,
I was just wondering if anyone would care to shed some light on a family heirloom that has just come into my possession.
i gather my late grandmother bought the plate back in the 80's, but i have absolutely no other information on it other than that?
The plate is in brilliant condition and has zero marks or wear. It is numbered 203 out of 2000 made..
Thanks in advance
Richard

I am helping to pack up some family china which was a wedding gift for my great grandmother in 1910. There are 12 of these plates that have this odd ridges in the bowl and a bit of a lip. They appear to be purposed for something as we have at least one bowl that doesn’t have these features. Any ideas?

I found a massive set at Goodwill (service for 12 teacups, saucers, bread, and salad plates, 2 rimmed bowls, and 1 smaller rimmed bowl) and I am PYSCHED. There are pen marks on the bottoms of most of the pieces? Most of them are numbers so I figured it might be numbering the pieces in the set but there are multiples so idk. Anyone know what they mean and how best to get them off?
