I found these 2 plates inside my home that was left behind and apparently forgotten by the previous owners. They were wrapped inside some newspapers from 1959-- so they are AT LEAST 50 years old. I believe they are ceramic. The artwork is raised so that it appears to have depth. There is no distinguishing markers such as a name or country. They appear to depict the exterior and interior of a cottage by a river, possibly English or german style homes from the early 20th or 19th century. They are in good condition with no chips or cracks. I am undecided if I wish to sell them, but I would like to know a guess on the appraised value. If anyone can give me their experienced opinion I would be grateful. Even if it not worth something I would still like to know any back history on this plate.
