We offer an incredible set of 9 antique smaller pewter plates. We bellieve that they date from the middle of the 18th century and taht they are continental.

On the internet, the Encyclopedia of Antiques we found the following information:

ANGEL: The Angel mark on pewter is of Continental origin, broadly speaking. It is seldom seen on English pewter. This touch-mark is used in conj unction with the maker's mark. The Angel may be flying, or standing with a palm branch in hand or with sword and scales. The use of this mark was strictly reserved for metal of the finest quality. It was adopted throughout most European countries, except France, as a sign of the very best, from the middle of the 17th century.
