Oh, I am so happy! I've got it with other two plates but they are not antique. I'll show them later. The price for three 210 euros.

 rose medallion plate

Irina,
No further images needed. congratulations! This is the first easy to recognise real antique I have seen from you.
This is a Qing dynasty rose medallion plate. They were made exclusively for export.
In my view this could be mid 19th century (about) or even a bit earlier.
I wish I could see the real thing. The gilt and other intricate details are so delicately painted ...this is no doubt one of the finest rose medallion pieces I have ever seen. Much better than the average rose medaillon porcelain.
Was it expensive?
