Armorial porcelain plate, genuine Chinese or Samson copy?
« on: May 25, 2008, 07:44:53 PM »
I am begining to think this is a Samson copy as the glaze is slightly green, especially on the edges near the base rim. Also, there are very few Pinholes.

It might be an old piece as there is dirt between the white enamel and the unicorn is faded.

See....

Yeah, I checked your previous topic out and it looked like the same kind of mark. Not bad for £2 even though it's Samson.  8)
