: I have a set of china which has a blue flower pattern. It has two backstamps; One is a circle theat has charles field haviland, gdmand cfh in the circle and also has another saying limoges and france.
: Any Ideas??
I have not seen that backmark before (not in the literature).
GDM was a mark used around 1882-1891.
There will be some Charles Field backmarks listed on the backmark page,
but this is not one of them.
Charles Field has tons of blue flowers, most not identified.
There is a book Charles Field Haviland Identification guide for $10 on the HCIF web page at:

Good luck.
