<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 215386, member: 308"]Welcome carrs! I would try French companies. The fleur de lis is usually associated with France. The shape is more like a platter than a plate but you didn't include the size so I'm not sure. Tracking down these logos can be difficult. There were many fraternal organizations and not all their emblems are recorded. Companies would sign contracts to supply these organizations with dishes but as they weren't really a factory product for the public there was no reason to add a manufacturer's mark. I believe you are probably right about this being ironstone and also on the age. The trim appears to be transfer ware but I can't see the pattern well enough to say much about it. If you search blue and white transfer ware platters you may find something similar. Others may be able to supply further information or correct anything I may have misstated above. I'm sorry I can't be of more help.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
