[QUOTE="Brian Warshaw, post: 9795344, member: 16674"]The 19th Royal Hussars (Queen Alexandra's own), was raised by the East India Company in 1858 and disbanded in 1874. Hence the elephant. You might like to contact the Museum of the Queen's Royal Hussars, [URL]https://www.qrhmuseum.com/contact[/URL]. They actually invite people with a story to tell, but they might have some knowledge to impart. To me the plate looks a bit like Rouen, France, which might have been picked up in India, or the Royal Hussars details might have been done after the disbanding. Tin-glazed earthenware really thrived in Rouen from1644.[/QUOTE]
