Misty Morn Collector Plate by Kaiser Porcelain

This item is a decorative collector plate titled "Misty Morn", painted by Gorda Neubacher. It is clearly identified as a special limited edition, with only 2,800 hand-numbered plates produced. This particular plate bears the number 1004. The plate was manufactured by Kaiser Porcelain of West Germany, a detail provided by the backstamp. The plate was created to commemorate the 1986 Canadian Artist of the Year. The physical characteristics indicate a white porcelain plate with detailed brown script lettering for the title, artist, edition information, and manufacturer. The Kaiser Porcelain mark, which includes a crown emblem, is present on the back along with the Collectors Plate Makers Association of Canada logo. The edges of the plate appear to be slightly raised or beveled, indicative of standard dinnerware or decorative plate construction. The overall condition appears to be good, with no overt signs of chips, cracks, or significant wear visible from the provided image. The script is crisp and legible, suggesting well-preserved glazing. The craftsmanship appears to be of high quality, typical of fine porcelain manufacturers like Kaiser. The style is classic commemorative, popular in the mid to late 20th century. The specific date of commemoration, 1986, pins down its age directly.
