<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 49345, member: 44&quot;]The 2nd piece, Mayer&#039;s &quot;Rhone Scenery&quot; is in petra Williams&#039;s Staffordshire, 1st vol, p. 390, as a plate, but has a different scene. I suspect this pattern came in multiple scenes with a diifferent scene on different pieces. Williams says this mark of Thomas, John and Joseph Mayer is in &quot;GMK 2570, c. 1843-55&quot;. Now the center scene is different, but the rim/border is the same as yours. Here is her description of the rim/border.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;The rim of this fourteen-sided plate is paneled and is covered with narrow, concentric lines. Five small swags of flowers are placed under branches of foliated scrolls around the rim. The scrolls continue and dip into the spaces between the flowers, terminating in split coils. Small slanted leaves are placed around the bottom rim design which partially enters the well, and their curved, pointed ends form a wreath around the well space.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
