<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 428259, member: 308&quot;]Polish porcelain has always driven me just a little batty.&nbsp; It seems some of the companies there make minor changes to a pattern and then release it under a different pattern name.&nbsp; Telling the difference between patterns can require careful attention.&nbsp; Some don&#039;t even use pattern names at all.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t worry too much.&nbsp; The people that collect always seem to find what they need.&nbsp; I can&#039;t explain the Jaronlina, Favolina, and Karolina but it wouldn&#039;t surprise me if these were all the same company.&nbsp; If looking for replacement pieces or to add to your set I would search all three names.&nbsp; This is an area that could use its own reference book or site but so far I have not found one.&nbsp; I would always trust the porcelainmarksandmore site over Replacements.&nbsp; Replacements is a fine company but it is in the business of selling china, glass, and silver.&nbsp; (And any company that lets you bring your pet to work can&#039;t be all bad).&nbsp; The porcelainmarksandmore site consists of much original research and documentation and is more a labor of love.&nbsp; I would trust the dates on that site.&nbsp; Welcome and good luck to you.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
