    Bought a small KPM dish. Stands 1" and measures 4" x 3". Are the marks from the 1990's? And would anyone know pattern name?

    "The painting marks
    Since 1803, decorated porcelain has also been marked with a painting mark. Today, this stamp, in the form of an imperial orb, is usually placed next to the scepter. Depending on the type of decoration, the painting mark is applied in various colors.

    Red: A red imperial orb marks the porcelains decorated with floral paintings. However, colored figures and landscape paintings also receive the red stamp.

    Green: If porcelain pieces are decorated without floral painting, for example with a gold or platinum border, color decorations or monograms, the imperial orb is stamped in green.

    blue: An orb in blue indicates decorations that were made with hot-fire colors. These colors are fired at a very high temperature, sink into the glaze and are dishwasher-safe.

    Black: Printed decorations, which KPM sometimes produces in small editions using lithography as a template for ceramic screen printing, are marked with a black imperial orb."
