Plates from the Chester Arthur Administration

These china plates were likely part of a purchase made for the White House from Tiffany and Company in 1882, during Chester Arthur's administration. The plates, which feature designs typical of the era, came from different manufacturing companies. The plate on the left was likely made by J. & G. Meakin of Hanley, England, the center plate by Worcester Royal Porcelain Company of Worcester, England, and the plate on the right by Brownfield & Son of Cobridge, England.
