Platinum-Trimmed Fine China Dinner Plates
A set of circular porcelain or semi-vitreous dinner plates featuring a classic cream or ivory glaze. Each plate is ornamented with high-polished platinum or silver-toned metallic trim around the rim and the interior verge. The rim decor consists of delicate filigree-style scrolls or floral sprays placed at intervals, separated by a thin, continuous concentric band. This design reflects a traditional mid-20th-century aesthetic, likely produced between the 1940s and 1960s, a period when such elegant patterns were popular for formal dining and wedding registries. The luster of the glaze and the fine application of the metallic trim indicate a moderate to high level of craftsmanship common in brands like Homer Laughlin, Noritake, or Lenox. Visible condition is generally good, with light surface reflections and minor utensil marks or stacking wear expected given its age. There are no obvious chips or cracks visible on the top plate. The metallic trim appears largely intact, though fine-line wear (rubbing) may be present upon closer inspection. The plates demonstrate a refined silhouette with a slightly raised rim, typical of formal service ware meant for sophisticated table settings.
