Makers mark |
Backmarks are the mark on the Underside of a plate or item. There is usually two marks- the Manufacturers mark and the Decorator mark. If there is only one mark (and it is the Manufacturers mark), the item was decorated elsewhere, either sold as whiteware and painted by the owner, or by a hand painting artist/ studio such as Stouffer or Pickard. |
