Posted By: plasticman Sun, Aug 23, 2020 This is a 20th century plate done with the "Hapsburg" arms in an earlier style. There seems to be a run on this pattern and eBay currently has many for sale with different manufacturers and degrees of heavy potting. |

Posted By: Bill H Sun, Aug 23, 2020 Your plate with faux Russian or Prussian armorial device in the cavetto has a base-mark, shown 90 degrees left of optimum viewing position, reading down and across from its top right as 'Made by the Hall of Everlasting Victory' (Yong sheng tang zhi - 永勝堂製). The gotheborg.com website shows examples of this mark on porcelain items with labels of 'Made in the People's Republic of China', indicating late 20th century or subsequent manufacture. |

Posted By: plasticman Wed, Sep 09, 2020 Just for historical accuracy, the arms shown are trying to mimic neither Russian nor Prussian arms. They do attempt to illustrate the Habsburg arms of the family that reigned over the Austro-Hungarian Empire. What is remarkable is that no direct connection ever existed between Chinese porcelain "hongs" with any country displaying those arms, though the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Prussia did for a limited period trade through intermediaries. |
