I just acquired a 5 place setting set of what appears to be child’s cup, saucer & plate with two larger “serving plates”. It has embossed corn and corn plant design, but doesn’t look like Shawnee to me. Here is a cup and a mark, which I can’t read. The bottom looks like “Made in _______” The center looks like a Dutch Girl, but it might not be.

Thank you to all who answered. That is them. I realized I only have 4 of the plates, and 5 C&S sets, plus the two bigger plates. I will probably put them up for sale.

It appears to me to read from Saltillo Mexico.
Could it be the match to [URL removed]
BP collection
with their

That’s the mark for Bordallo Pinheiro Pottery, made in Portugal.
(The design in the center of the mark is a frog.)

It is Bordallo Pinheiro….Time Span right on!
Made in Portugal (like Time Span says) and the backstamps are often not very clear like the one you have pictured.
Bordallo is collectible when in good condition.
