I picked up this Baroque shape by Fostoria handled plate today, but can't find the etching pattern. Any help would be appreciated.

From the very small sample you've pictured, it looks like Chintz. If it's the handled lunch tray, the prodoction dates are 1940 to 1970. BV, which as you know means nothing on eBay, is $115.

Thank you, you're right. I checked Florence's book, didn't notice that the chintz listed in it was by Heisey, not Fostoria. Pattern didn't match, so I asked here. I am growing to really dislike Florence's guides.
