This appraisal is provided for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute a certified, licensed, or formal appraisal.
Appraisal results are generated using automated systems, including artificial intelligence, and are based solely on the information and images submitted by the user, along with publicly available data. As such, results may contain inaccuracies, omissions, or errors.
InstAppraisal does not authenticate items. No determination of authenticity, origin, materials, maker, or age should be considered verified. Many items—particularly luxury goods, watches, jewelry, coins, art, and designer products—are frequently counterfeited and may closely resemble genuine examples. Authenticity cannot be confirmed from images alone.
Any statements regarding authenticity are expressions of opinion only and should not be relied upon as fact. Independent professional authentication is strongly recommended before any purchase, sale, or valuation decision.
Appraisal values are estimates only and may vary significantly based on condition, provenance, market demand, and additional information not available at the time of review.
Appraisals must not be relied upon for insurance, legal, tax, estate, or financial purposes without independent professional verification.

Re: bone china??
This is not made of bone. The glare of the light and the purity of the white coloration can assure that. I would guess that it is porcelain (or some other sort of ceramic if not that, though it is probably pircelain) with metal around the edges and a glaze to cover it all.
Of course, if I am mistaken and these dishes aren't smooth and cold but rather warm and almost wood-like, then you've got yourself some bone objects. But bone was only ever really used way before thay decorated things.
That red mark in the third picture is a signature.
Sadly, to evaluate your items, I would need a bit more than just pictures. We'll start with an easy one. How much did you pay for it?
