Fabbrica del Vecchio was located in Naples and was active from 1785 through ht early 19th century, using an impressed “FDV" over a stylized “N” for Naples- both of these plates bear this mark. The Victoria and Albert Museum, London, has several examples of FDV creamware in its collection. Good antique condition, with light wear and typical artisanal irregularities, as made.
