<p>[QUOTE="kentworld, post: 9580660, member: 35"]It does look like JR -- we seem to have double posts for this plate! But, there is a slim possibility that it's just R. The decoration is similar to Meissen and other factories in that are of Europe that decorated with sparce florals (compared to some British floral decoration) and a few insects. The "story" (and I have no reference for this!) is that the insects were used to cover up flaws from the firing. It is also possible that JR is the decorator rather than the factory. The colour palette suggests a later date than Veuve Perrin, but it's difficult to say whether late 19th or sometime in the 20th.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
