Marilyn : Mid-Century Modern
Marilyn Presents
Original Presentation Script
This appears to be a Victorian-style porcelain or ironstone charger plate, likely made in the United States or England around 1880 to 1910. The cream ground, gilt border, and pink floral scroll decoration are consistent with mass-produced decorative tableware of the period. I do not see a maker’s mark or reverse view, so attribution and dating remain cautious. Based on the photo, a conservative auction estimate would be about $30 to $80 if period, or $15 to $40 if later decorative ware.

Curator Questions
Curated by Jade
Assessment:
A decorative Victorian-revival serving piece with attractive floral and gilt ornament. The photo suggests a mass-produced porcelain/ironstone charger rather than a rare antique, and there is no visible maker's mark to refine attribution.

The form, cream glaze, gilt border, and floral scroll pattern clearly indicate a late Victorian decorative plate or charger, though the exact maker and country remain uncertain from the single photo.

It reads as period tableware, but the image does not show the back, mark, or wear needed to confirm age; the decoration and finish are consistent with common late 19th or early 20th century factory production.
