Artist Marked Floral Plate

This is an interesting plate made by Fuerstenberg in the 18th century. It is hand painted with very nice floral arrangement in the center as well as a tiny leaf and flower. The nicely shaped rim has three small floral arrangements painted on plain sections and three small single flowers on sections that have them surrounded by a relief design to the paste. In between the different sections are pieces that have a relief scale design to them. Simple yet very elegant! The plate is in good condition with some wear and a chip to the underside rim that can be just seen on the edge from above. It also has two chips to the foot ring as shown. What I find interesting and unusual is that the plate has a puce artist mark to the underside besides the normal under glaze script F mark as well as some impressed marks as shown. I don't recall having ever seen an artist mark on a Fuerstenberg plate like this so it is definitely unusual and interesting. Might help with someone's research ?? The plate is 1.5 inches tall and 9.625 inches in diameter. Please email me for more information or photos.

Price is $249
