Very nice QUALITY German handpainted Plates!They are 9-3/8" across and 1-5/8" tall.
Excellent condition; no chips or cracks.
Marked on back:
"Reproduction of an 18th Century Japanese Plate
Excavated at the Thomas Elfe House, Charleston, S.C.
Handpainted by C.C.
C. 1982 C. Coulter"
I have been unable to find any info online about these plates.
Close examination reveals they are slightly different, and handpainted.
The work that went into painting these is substantial!
I have no idea who commissioned these, but they are very interesting.
