| References | The impressed numbers on Vienna are a handy guide to dating pieces. From 1783-1800 the last two numbers of the year were impressed, and 1801 onwards the last three were impressed. There is also a modeller's number on the base of each, but as one is 12 and the other 33, the closer together 99 and 801 are assumed to be the dates. One has been a 3-year old blank when it was decorated in 1801 or soon after. |
