    Description

    Queen Alexandra S porcelain plate from her service made by T . GOODE a& C * - London.. It has her monogram with handpainted  flowers and topped with the crown. The border is handpainted with roses and blue flowers with a gold ring in the most external border.
    it is 8 1/ 2 inches.
    Plates from the British Royal Services are very rare and hard to find ,because they are kept in the Royal Store Room in the Palaces. Possibly this was given to some of her ladies in waiting of some loyal worker when retired.
