    Hi,
    I picked up these 3 little dishes, 4" x 4". All marked on the back, Italy 752 but I can't make out the other mark.
    Any info appreciated.

    Colonnata is an Italian ancient village and a hamlet

    Komokwa is correct. The company was known as "Societa Ceramica de Colonnata". The firm was founded in 1891 in Sesto Fiorentino, a suburb of Florence. It was considered one of the best and most important ceramics manufacturers in Italy during the first half of the 20th century and their beautiful pottery pieces are very collectible today. By the style of the mark on the back I would date the plates to the late 1930's. The company survived until the mid 1960's. These are average examples of their mid-range offerings.

    Hi everyone
    My name is Lisa
    This is @ Walter :)

    I was curious if you have any idea of this marking on a set I have, made in Italy also
    (Italy 371) On the bottom of the small plates and cup (espresso set)
    I would really appreciate any information to help guide me in my research of this set
    Kind Regards
    Lisa

    Ps I am trying to upload the image but is saying it is too large
    I will add it soon as I figure out how :/
