HISTORY:
Ovington Brothers China and Glass was founded by Theodore and Edward Ovington in 1843. The first shop was in Brooklyn, New York.
They imported and sold high-quality china and glassware.
While not a manufacturer itself, it became a prominent name in decorative arts, with some pieces bearing its distinctive backstop, as seen in items painted by Helena Wolfsohn for the company.
After the brothers' passing, some of their other family members continued the cha ware business under the name "Ovington Pottery," which is still found in antique shops today.
Also, pieces with the "Ovington Brothers" backstop are sought after by collectors today.

MEASUREMENTS:
The plates are 10 inches in diameter.
