Flemish Pottery Lacemaker and Spinster Plates

Spellewerkster: 8-5/8" diameter, 1.5" high
Spinster:8.25" diametet, .75" high lacemaker, 1" high

The designs of the two plates match quite well, but the Spellewerkster is larger and heavier. It has holes drilled in the rim of the footat the back, and is signed, Noves? CERAM on the back. The Spinster has no foot rim, but a raised pierced hanger, and no signature. They are probably from different manufacturers, but the match is so close that I'll show them together.

Both in excellent condition.
