Description

OK, so I found some Fornasetti Milano Malachite Plates at a thrift store today. They are not real Malachite, that is the name of the pattern. I thought they were interesting and looked unique, so I decided I couldn't leave them stacked under tons of other dusty plates to get scratched, so I took them up to the register. Crazy enough, it was 30% off day! After looking them up online I am surprised that they seem so popular these days (although, there isn't much price comparison online for these particular plates). Can anyone tell me what these are worth?
