<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 4486443, member: 308&quot;]Lovely plates! I often think of French origin, too, when I see pink on plates like this. Of course, the color pink was not restricted to the French. What I find problematic to French origin is the shape of the blank. The most likely French manufacturer from the aesthetic time period would be Haviland and I don&#039;t remember Haviland using that type of pierced edge. Pierced rims are more often associated with German and Bohemian manufacturers. That doesn&#039;t mean they are not French decorated but that&#039;s just more conjecture at this point. I agree with you that it&#039;s not worth breaking the frames to find out for sure. It would be especially demoralizing if, after breaking a frame, to find out the plates are unsigned after all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
