I would love to know the name of this pattern please. Rosenthal, Germany said that it is pre 1934. Any information gratefully received

Hi, oatibix. :-)
I used replacement dot com's tool to search their site with one of your photos, and bingo!:

BTW, I saw an eBay listing for a Rosenthal Woodland Birds serving dish that initially puzzled me:

It turns out that the "Aida" reference was to the shape of the piece. Rosenthal made more than one pattern in the Aida shape, e.g.:

Thank you all so much! I obviously don’t have the research skills I thought I have!! The China is a family set that was my father’s mother’s and she died in 1931 so I knew it was old and was probably part of a dowry. Thank you all
oatibix, You're welcome. :-)
That tool at replacements dot com doesn't always work, but when it does, it's great.
So, possibly part of your grandmother's dowry. Cool. <3
