Cabinet plate
This 8.5” plate with the raised gold pattern was made for an elegant department store Hamilton & Clark in Pittsburgh. This detailed pattern is raised above the surface and as far as I can tell none of the gold has been knocked off. I do not see any tarnish on the gold color. There are what look like “rubs” from being stacked on an estimated less than 10%. I do not think food was served on the plate but it was used as a decorative setting. I believe the Coalport pattern number is Z6917 which is written on the back in gold along with a “G”. Impressed in the plate is 18C5 and 50. I do not see or feel any dings. It is not mint but for having been around since the early 1900’s it can not get any closer.
All of my items are used and will show some signs of our ancestor’s normal use. This is not damage like a chip or a crack. If use marks, in my opinion, are unusually noticeable I will comment on it.
