Given the hand-painting and its condition, this plate was made early on. The decorative plate embodies the elegance of the Edwardian era with its glossy milk glass and hand-painted details, bringing a touch of yesteryear to any setting. Measuring at 7.3 inches in diameter, this round plate with embossed cats is a testament to the craftsmanship of the period, making it an ideal piece for Christmas or to simply add a quaint, historical element to your cat-lover's collection. The plate is in very good antique condition. The glass is completely intact - no chips or cracks. The paint is in reasonable condition - the cats are still mostly covered with the gold paint, the flowers are almost fully present, and you can read Merry Christmas along the bottom. The open lace loops and finials have lost most of their paint (originally green and gold).
