[QUOTE="Tanya, post: 4136186, member: 8340"]My last post of the day in this forum, I promise! : -) In researching one plate I have come across some interesting information that *might* be relevant to another plate I have. It seems this may be the Poterat family coat of arms, used on an item dated between 1612-1687. [URL]https://museedelaceramique.fr/en/oeuvres/plate-with-the-poterat-coat-of-arms-presumed[/URL] [ATTACH=full]331754[/ATTACH] I had never been able to find anything similar to the cost of arms on a plate I have. But this has some similarities. Both have a “coat of arms in blue with a chevron and three five-pointed gold stars”. Also, my plate is marked Rouen. So some relation to the Poterat family makes a lot of sense. What surrounds it is very different on the two items. Could it change that much in 100 years? From what I have been able to research my plate would be significantly later than 1687. Or maybe the cost of arms changed due to marriages?
