antique "9852" floral garland pattern silicon china (porcelain like) bread plates from booths. made in england. based on the manufacturer's back stamp or porcelain mark, i am dating these bread plates to circa 1906+ but not after 1927. pattern 9852 is characterized by garlands of pink, blue and yellows on white silicon china with a gold gilt pattern on the rim and outer edge. there is some faint crazing in the enamel. i did notice some teeny, tiny rough spots when i ran my finger tips around the outer edge. they don't look to be chips but rather manufacturing flaws. bear in mind, these are 114 year old plates. i tried to get a good shot but they are tiny and on the underside so i couldn't really get a good shot. i only noticed them when i ran my fingers around the edges. i have taken a bunch of pictures to help give you an accurate idea of the condition. please, please, please look at them and enlarge them. i always try to highlight any flaws with the pictures. they are, by far, the most important part of my ad. please allow for color variations from screen to screen. let's keep it real, colors do vary from device to device. your item has been shipped with shipping insurance. accidents do sometimes happen. if it does arrive damaged or broken, please contact me and we will work through the insurance claim process together. please be sure to include clear pictures of the damage. evidence of damage is needed to make an insurance claim. I try my best to highlight any flaws, but I may miss something by mistake. that is why I strongly encourage you to really look at all of my photos, enlarge them. the item in my pictures is the item you will be sent. I want you to be happy, but I do not accept returns, so please give my pictures a good thorough look. this item is a true antique item. antique items from my shop are at least 100 years old at the minimum. please expect that this item has been used and loved for at least 100 years. it will have the usual wear, dings and a the "petina" that comes with items that have been used for at least 100 years. if you are expecting an item in "brand new" condition, this item may not be for you.

* i must warn you, i am an early bird and turn into a pumpkin after about 8:30 pm est. any questions or offers received after this time may very well be answered the next day. please understand that e-baying while half asleep is not the best business practice. lol thank you for your understanding.
** this is a fun hobby for me. I am not a full time seller nor am I a corporation with a call center. I do not devote 100% of my life to online sales. I am a real person with a full time job, a family, friends and puppies to raise. I love to treasure hunt and enjoy selling my finds to folks who have the same likes that I do. I do my best to list correctly and ship in a timely manner.  I try very hard to treat people as I would want to be treated. if this works for you then fantastic. if you have other expectations, then I may not be the seller for you.
*** please scope out the rest of the items in my store. I would be happy to "bundle" items & combine shipping costs as long as the box does not become too big & heavy. big, heavy boxes of fragile things can be dangerous when shipping.
**** I do not accept returns unless a mistake is made in my listing. I do try to be thorough in my listings but mistakes do happen. if you do find something I missed, please contact me within 24 hours of receiving your purchase. also, please include pictures of the area you are concerned about. communication makes it easier for both of us to come to an agreement we are both are happy with. I am committed to doing my best in these tricky situations. this is supposed to be fun, for all of us.
*****i absolutely use recycled shipping items. bubble wrap, boxes, styrofoam, packing peanuts and newspapers are not cheap and i do not charge a handling fee to cover those costs. i reuse, repurpose and recycle shipping products whenever i can. recycling shipping products is a great way to keep my costs down and help the environment.
