Description I will post a picture of this tomorrow, here is some info until then: This is a large platter plate, with a beautiful black print scene of swallows in flight. On the bottom there is a print of a diamond blue mark with IV at the top and in the 4 corners are: Top 31 (day of month 31st) right D (Year 1878) bottom C (month January) left 8 (Parcel number) above all this it shows B.& S.H Lily As you can see from above I have been able to work out the dating of this piece but I can find nothing on the manufacturer or the price of this piece. Any information anyone could provide would be brilliant! Thanks Leanna Although I have said I don't want to sell this I may be persuaded if the price is right!
