Sorry I missed last weeks Vintage Thingies Thursday with Coloradolady and her friends. I always look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with in the vintage world.
I saw these plates in an antique store. Plates were all the pieces available. Not sure what they were used for.
I certainly did not need any more dishes, but I thought the pattern on them was so pretty. When I turned the plate over and saw what was on it, I could not resist. I only bought four of the plates. I tried researching the LV marking, but no luck. I have no idea what it really stands for, but I had never seen that marking on anything before. The important thing is, it stands for me.

Well of course you had to have those plates, LV! It would have been silly not to get them! And they're beautiful too! I've got a book on China markings, so I'll take a look and hopefully find your plates!
Happy VTT!

WHat a great find; of course you had to get a few. They look wonderful on your table, and I really like the shape.
Well how fun is that! Your initials right there on the back of the plate. Your close up the flowers is so pretty - nice details.
These are a favorite of mine...and belonged only on your table LV!!!

Oh, please let me know if you find out what the lv stands for. They are just lovely finds. I love the hunt myself.
I cannot believe, you are a young 80. My Papa retired at 81! He was so healthy until then. He was an artist who painted cathedrals in southern Italy. Go check out his work on my blog. You'll love it! It's a few posts down.

Hi LV!
those plates are so pretty! And how cool to find your name on them! LOL
Happy VTT!
You and those lovely plates were meant to be. Very pretty pattern.
Sunny :)
Those are beautiful and with those initials of course you had to have them!
It is a cold, wet, dreary morning and I just don't want to work! What better way is there to spend my time than finding great blogs like yours. I have square plates like this in a different pattern. I was told they are luncheon plates. I just love the shape.
I have not idea about the LV - but yes...so nice. Perfect for you...although pretty perfect anyway
These are such a neat shape!
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog!!!
Your plates are lovely!!!!!! I'm going to be stopping by first to read your fun and interesting blog and second in hope you find out what the LV stands for.
Barb
OF course it stands for you! lol
Very pretty post. I love the crocheted placemats too.
Becky K.
Oh, my, those plates really did have your name on them. Very pretty too.
Hi LV,
The plates are very pretty and I like them on your crocheted placemats. I've seen the LV mark before, but I have no idea what it is.
Happy VTT.
Kathy
These are so pretty! I love the flowers, they are different than most! Such vivid colors! Great find!
Lovely plates! Say, come over to my blog - I have an award for you!!! You are one cool chick!
LV,
Now how wonderful of a find were these! I can see why you would pick them up and they are so beautiful as well!
Love and Hugs ~ Kat
Wow. What a find! You were meant to have these beautiful plates.
They look remarkably like what I would picture you to be like and something you would be drawn to.
So dainty and intricate.
Absolutely Gorgeous plates. Can't resist your own initials, that's a rule!
I like the shape of those plates. Definitely made for you, LV!!!
Living it up at Lakewood,
Cindy
