<p>[QUOTE="Walter Del Pellegrino, post: 356773, member: 90"]The plate has the typical scalloped edge of Moustiers pottery rather than the wares from Nevers. The back of the plate has no foot or rim and the flat bottom certainly suggests that the plate was made in a hand pressed mold, again typical of pottery from Moustiers. I think this was made in the twentieth century but not necessarily to deceive anyone. It was made to appear as if a young 18th girl was practicing how to write her name and draw animals.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
