Thanks, Wendy and KC.  Rather disappointed that it's not worth any more than that.  May make a place for it in my china cabinet instead of selling it- Mom has always been so proud of that piece.

Thank you Wendy for your help.  Those other plates with the same pattern in the middle are beautiful- interesting that they used it in 2 different plates like that.  I'll wait to see what those bring on ebay; could be interesting.

Antique Questions Forum / CS Prussia Chocolate Pot

« on: August 01, 2011, 01:16:51 pm »

This chocolate pot was given to my mother years ago by her brother who traveled a lot; it was old when he gave it to her.  The bottom stamp says C.S. Prussia with a flower in green/blue.  According to porcelainmarksandmo re.com, this stamp was used between 1882 and 1918.  I have found a huge range of prices for these so I don't really know where to start with this.  Any ideas?

Here are 4 9” Spode plates in a pattern I could only find at replacements.com, and that was in red rather than the blue that I have.  It is pattern #SP125; stamp on the back says Jewel Copeland.   One of them has a small discolored place on it; other than that they are in perfect condition.  With no other plates like this that I can find online, any suggestions on a starting price for these?

Antique Questions Forum / Porzellain Fabrik bowl

« on: August 01, 2011, 12:52:20 pm »

We are going through all the stuff Mom had in her china cabinet, and have found a couple we don't know how to price for sale.  This one is a smaller bowl, 5 1/4" in diameter and stands about 1 3/4" tall.  According to the write-up on one that looks just like it online, it has pewter edging and was made around 1900 in Bavaria, Germany.  The bottom says Porzellain Fabrik and is apparently made by Rudolstadt.  This one is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or dings and not even any utensil marks that I can see.  Any ideas on where to start with a price?
