Anyone know who this maker is? The mark is a script L in what looks like a shield with a crown.

Its a 9" diameter pierced circular tray with applied florals and a short foot;

Okay, it's Durgin. That's a "D" not an "L".
Sorry, I should have looked closer.

Yeah, I initially thought Durgin, but it doesn't exactly match the entry in my copy of Rainwater...
Not 100% sure.

I see it is indeed Durgin.
My mistake. :-)
