Trying to identify the maker of this mid century stoneware plate. The name of the pattern "Arabesco" Freezer to Oven Stoneware Made in Japan Dishwasher Safe 4124 1-1 is marked on the back. We think Arabesco is the name of the pattern. We don't know the significance of the number. We have found other plates by this manufacturer, but they apparently were unable to identify the maker based on the makers mark, as well. Any information would be greatly appreciated!(We have other plates with this makers mark that were sold by Sears probably in the 1970s. We are trying to find out the name of the company that made these for Sears. Thanks!
Found a *Caleca Arabesco* Covered Casserole Dish. Sounds like Arabesco is the maker:

These don't have delicate flowers. I think you may be referring to Caleca's Arabesco pattern, Caleca is an italian pottery- these were made in Japan- their styles are very different. But, thanks for your input!
