<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Brassey, post: 2822774, member: 15277&quot;]A week or two ago there was a lengthy thread which concluded that Quirkygirl&#039;s porcelain plates were by Nantgarw. Having collected ceramics since 1985 I was fascinated as I have never come across a piece of Nantgarw. I looked at the photos and the pattern was indeed a Nanthgarw one (but other factories could have copied it).</p><p><br /></p><p>With the post fresh in my mind I was amazed at the coincidence of this piece turning up in a mixed lot at our local auction this week. The pattern is absolutely identical to Nantgarw pieces sold on the saleroom. It measures 27cm and, apart from some fading to the flowers, is in very good condition. It is marked with a pattern number 1381 and I believe that Nantgarw rarely used pattern numbers so the mystery continues. It is however extremely translucent. I have written to the Nantgarw museum and will keep you informed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks again to the forum for constantly educating me.[ATTACH=full]281931[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]281932[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]281933[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]281934[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
