We have seen other examples of similar plates that have been dated to circa 1863 but can not confirm with certainty that this is the manafacturing date for this item.

However, this plate is in remarkable condition for its age with very little ware. The back of the plate is very clean and is stamped with the renowned JM manufacturing stamp. It also has a string for hanging.

It never ceases to amaze us that something so old can still be in such excellent condition and for the short while that these precious artifacts are in our posession we like to think of ourselves as custodions of history. This plate is now looking for a new home, so if you're looking to be the next custodion, are a Maresch collector or simply want a beautiful piece of pottery to adorn your wall then pop this little gem in your basket before someone else does!

We also have another Johann Maresch plate listed, if you would like both items please contact us for a revised shipping quote.
