Identify a pattern

Posted by Sarah on February 8, 2011, 8:17 pm

I have three gorgeous plates. Flow blue with yellow ground. Nothing on the back of the plates to identify the pattern. I have a picture and can email it to anyone who thinks they may know anything about this pattern.

here is a picture

Hi Sarah, I tried my work and home computers and I can't open the photo of your plates. Please send a couple of photos to m-jtaylor@sbcglobal.net Please take one of the entire plate front and one close-up of the border. Thanks, Jerry

Hi Sarah, we did receive your pictures. We have seen that pattern before but will need to do some research before we can identify it. We think its from a county other than England. We will try and research the pattern and potter over the weekend. Jerry

Hi Sarah, I'm sorry to say we have not been able to find your pattern name or potter. We did receive your photos, but have not been able to identify the piece. Again, we think its origin is a country other than the US, Germany or England. Possibly another member will see this request for help and assist? Our reference books rely heavily on the potters backstamp in identifying a pattern or potter. Keep an eye on EBay as a plate like yours will sooner or later show up with a potter's backstamp on it. I am sure there are members of this Club that know the information we are looking for. Sarah, if you are a member of this Club, please send a photo to our Club BlueBerry Notes Editor for publishing or bring the plate to the Convention in July for identification. Jerry

Thank you Jerry. We went to Rennegers Antique Fest this past week in Mt. Dora and looked EVERYWHERE for some of these plates and no one knew anything about them or were there any there.I just love them and want to repeat them in my home. We also went to a small town in central Florida and looked in Flow Blue books. To no avail. We talked to a lady named Monica who owns an antique store there and she said it is flow blue but had never seen it. I will do what you said and send the picture to the Blueberry editor. Thanks so much for the time you have spent looking

Hi Sarah, You are going to have the whole club involved in this curious search! Since I love the flow with the colors as well; my dining room is filled with the flow blue and green combo. I'd love to see your beautiful plates. Please send me a photo as well. ellenk2@earthlink.net I do agree however, putting it in the BlueBerry Notes is your best bet to get info in order to try to find more of them. Good luck!

Hi Sarah, The BlueBerry Notes is our Club newsletter which comes free about 5 times a year to our members. If you are newly joined you will be receiving it shortly, if you are not yet a member, please consider joining. We are one of the best groups you will ever meet. We all love this china, have regional meetings and a yearly big convention every summer. You do not have to have a huge collection to enjoy belonging. It is full of all kinds of information, you will get a membership log which includes all the members who are dealers and what we all collect. I promise someone in the Club will be able to help you but yes, you are right. Alot of the "color" on flow is made by Dimmock or Alcock. Getting the BlueBerry Notes is worth the price of the membership alone. You will see what I mean when you receive your first copy. Come join us!

FYI: The plate that Sarah has is the same pattern that Bob F. has, and it was pictured in the Blueberry Notes when they had the Regional meeting around Halloween at Bob & Nancy's house. It is marked as "unknown": yellow ground with flowers in the center and on rim. Beautiful plate. If any of you, particularly the ones that collect ground flow blue, know what this pattern is, please let us know!

I just saw a "salmon " ground unknown footed platter EXACTLY like it on ebay. It ended tonight/ But it was just like my yellow ground. Thank you Judy !
