Hey Tom,

Did you ever figure out anything about the plates? I am still interested.

Subject: Trying to Identify Hand Painted Porcelain Dinnerware Hallmark (Maker's Mark) Late 19th early 20th century

Histarch Community,

I have photos of some plates were found in a home and consist of a hand painted floral decoration. The hallmark of consists of a line only hand drawn crown that has a three segment top portion that makes five points and a circular drawn base overtop a script "D".

I am trying to definitively identify the maker/factory and would require a reference as confirmation.  My efforts have come up short so I am hoping someone in the community has seen this mark before.  The house is in Philadelphia and I believe the plates may be from the late 19th-early 20th century and are likely European in origin based on other items in the collection.

If there is anyone that believes they can help me identify the maker and time period please respond me and I will provide you with a link to the photographs.

Any help will be appreciated.

Tom
