The set of "Votes for Women" china included: a luncheon plate, a coffee cup and saucer, a bread or cake plate, and a soup bowl, a creamer, an oval celery plate, and a small berry dish. This collection includes the bread plate (shown) and the saucer.

This plate was most likely created as a part of a luncheon service for a women's suffrage conference held at Alva Belmont's summer home, Marble House, in Newport, Rhode Island in July 1914. ]]>
