Hi, is this a genuine Chinese Armorial plate or a Sampson copy?

Thanks Tony...

This is typical of the designs used by the Samson Co. on it's 19th century reproductions. The mark is also attributed to that business. But Samson porcelain are become expensive and collectible in their own right.

Thank you Robert, either way, it was a good buy.

I thought it must be old as the dirt has filled up into the pinholes in the white enamel paint and the unicorn is faded a bit.
