I am looking to find an equivalent in German for Lavender Porcelain Dinner plate.
Is it Porzellan-Speiseteller in Lavendel or in Lila?

Thanks for all the input!

Explanation:

neutral  Irene Schlotter, Dipl.-Übers.: Flieder ist hat einen höheren Rotanteil, Lavendel einen höheren Blauanteil – daher würde 'fliederfarben' dem 'lavender' nicht ganz entsprechen.
