Pewter Plates
I have about 6 dinner plates with the more decorative edge and on the back is the RWP circled, but nothing else identification-wise. All I read are from another company called Armetale which would include their own stamp as well as the RWP.
I also have about 10 bread plates of the plain variety with the single stamp of RWP....again, no other marks.

The person that gave these to me back in the 80's had some pretty cool antiques and was a restaurateur. Possibly he used these in his restaurant, I have no way of knowing. He was very close friend of the family, but is now is deceased, so I can't ask.

I can't seem to find any information WITHOUT an additional identifying mark besides the RWP which I know is revere.

They are QUITE used. I don't know if they are antique or more recent vintage.

Google was not my friend this time around...can any of you help?

Thanks!

Good luck,
