Fake Flow Blue Platter

Posted by Philp Nahrgang on November 18, 2024, 7:01 pm

My thrift shop received this flow blue platter. We've received FB dishware before but the hallmark on the back makes me wonder if this is a fake. It's smeared. I have seen on this site an image of a fake Doulton mark next real mark. Also, the hallmark itself has a lamp on the bottom versus the moon I have seen in others. Can anyone hazard a guess about the authenticity of this piece?

Yes, you have an authentic Flow blue platter by Doulton. Madras is the pattern name.

I apologize for the delay in answering, my computer sometimes is contrary. Judith is absolutely correct about your platter and it is a desirable pattern. Good luck with it.
