Unknown Hoechst Type Plate #1

This is an odd plate. It has the shape, relief decoration and painting of an 18th century Hoechst plate but strikes me as a 19th century piece. I cannot quite figure this one out. The plate has lots of relief flower decoration held together with a bow in the well, four small flowers along the rim and a nice central hand painted floral arrangement. All exactly like a Hochst plate but it is not marked in any way and the footring seems to be different as well thought that might just be because it was not ground down. Maybe a piece from the very end of this maker or a redo from a mold they sold after closing in 1796 but I thought only their figurine mold were sold!? Maybe someone else has more insight into this piece but it is a great quality plate and in perfect condition with just a few tiny firing spots. The plate is 1.5 inches tall and 10 inches in diameter. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $149
