question about these antique plates
« on: August 04, 2011, 11:05:56 am »
I bought them from car boot sale and wonder when it's made and how much it's worth. This is my first antique buy really. I looked up on the internet and saw a few website about it but maybe you guys could give me some more information

it's Shelley, number 11502

sorry i don't know how to put the image on here  ::)

I Googled "Shelley, number 11502" and found some pics for a pinkish china pattern that came in cups, plates, saucers, and probably more.

This site has a little info and some pics http://www.pristineantiques.com.au/shelley-china/pink-scroll/526-shelley-pink-scroll-11502-cup/saucer/plate

Yes that is Queen Ann shape 11502 Pink Scroll  But looks to be what they called a cake plate Photos are not clear on stamp and marks  would need clear photo of makers mark to date  the pattern Pink Scroll was entered into  the pattern book  after 1926, If the mark under the pattern # 11502 is a letter it should be an F which was used to indicate the shape the pattern was used on in this case Queen Anne. G letter would indicate Queen Anne Tall, If there are various dots & squiggles painted on the back they were used to identify the person who painted each piece, These marks were used to calculate the wages of the individuals who were paid on a piece-meal basis. I would place a value of $150.00 for your cake plate Shelley has a high resale value and is beautiful china I have several hundred pieces myself. great first antique buy !!! :)
