The bottom one looks good and old but could you make some better pictures like the back and the damaged parts for the colour off the used clay ?

I think it could be Dutch ( the bottom one )  but could also be a English Delftware plate . The top one is not looking Dutch to me  :-\  . But the colour off the helps and a photo from the back side  ;D

No, the stickers are right and have been attached for a long time, these plates (i don't know about the other pieces) were in Ruth Troiani antique shop in Conn at the time of her death and i guess her descendants auctioned them off after her death.
