I have 11 Alfred Meakin dinner plates handed down to me by my late Grandmother.She died in 1979 aged in her 80's.Story goes these are the last of a Dinner set given to her when she arrived in Australia from Italy in 1928. The plates are creamy and have a pink rose in the centre with three bunches on the sides with smaller bunches in between the plates have a wave edge and a gold rim. bottom of plate has Alfred Meakin Engkand and all are numbered around edged of base. example one has 14 $ 15 in red around edge of base. As I want to make a gift of these plates to my daughter for her wedding next month I would like to know some history Hopefully you can help me. my email address is scrima2@dodo.com.au
