Four of the plates are marked on the underside for Davenport, a mark used between 1805 and 1820. The remaining six plates are marked with an octagon mark featuring a large crown at the center, the word Stone at the top and China at the bottom, with a wreath rising from below and a ribbon at the top surrounding the octagon. This mark could not be identified with certainty, but given that it appears on plates in the exact same pattern as the confirmed Davenport plates, it may represent an unrecorded Davenport mark, or another English maker working in the same period, likely the first half of the 1800's. Condition is excellent throughout. Two of the plates have chips to the edge that have been professionally repaired, shown in the ninth and tenth photographs. The remaining 8 plates are in excellent condition. Diameter is 9 5/8 inches.
