Comments

This relatively small plate is unmarked by the maker. One physical feature that may one day improve identification is a thicker or broader single reed around the plate edge than usually encountered. Since this plate was cast in a bronze mold, linking it to other examples from the same mold might increase the information through maker's marks or provenance.
