Anyone have any ideas? [View all]

I work at a charity thrift shop and have been assigned to research anything that may be
more than the ordinary thrift shop household donations.

Last week we were given 6 hand painted miniature plates. These plated have an 'A' support attached to the back, these supports are in the making. The same porcelain as the little plates themselves. They are about 3 3/4 inches in diameter, beautifully painted in a floral design. Signed only "Made in France for Richard Norton Inc'.

I have tried to look them up but Richard Norton Inc seems to me a high end antique cooperative.
Perhaps I have missed the proper link.

Since we have one a case with better than average goods, I thought these 6 plates would look great.
I have no idea how to price them. We never put high prices on anything but these miniature plates, with this attribution, must be worth at least $ 5.00 each, perhaps a little more.
Wish I could be more specific but they are a puzzle to me. Any ideas?
