THIS MAGNIFICENT COLLECTION OF FOUR RARE ANTIQUE HALLMARKED (OR TOUCHMARK AS IT IS REFERRED TO ON PEWTER) PEWTER SCALLOPED PLATES EACH MEASURE ROUGHLY 19cm ACROSS. THE DESIGN OF THE PLATES DATES BACK TO THE MID 1600's AND ARE OFTEN REFERRED TO AS QUEEN ANNE PLATES. ALTHOUGH THE PLATES ARE ENGRAVED 1927 WITH THE INITIALS "FS" I THINK THE PLATES ACTUALLY DATE BACK TO THE MID TO LATE 1800's. THE TOUCH MARK WHICH IS AN ANGEL WITH A BALANCE AND THE MAKERS MARK JH & SM WERE MANUFACTURERS IN THE 1800's IN GERMANY ALTHOUGH I CAN NOT FIND VERY MUCH INFORMATION ON THEM. ONLY THREE OF THE PLATES ARE ENGRAVED (1927) ON THE BACK. PLEASE VIEW THE PICS CAREFULLY FOR THE GENERAL CONDITION OF THESE INCREDIBLE PLATES. THEY ARE EXTREMELY RARE PIECES. 

PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU ARE BIDDING PER PLATE TO TAKE ALL FOUR OF THEM. POSTAGE FOR ALL FOUR IS R 85.00. 

PLEASE VIEW THE PICS VERY CAREFULLY FOR MORE DETAILING AND THE GENERAL CONDITION OF THE ITEM, AS THE PICTURES FORM PART OF THE DESCRIPTION. VINTAGE PIECES DO HAVE WEAR AND TEAR, THEY ARE NOT NEW. EVERY CARE IS TAKEN TO FULLY DESCRIBE THE ITEM TO YOU.
