Brown Transferware LOON Tray Platter ~ DEVONSHIRE 1884

AESTHETIC BROWN TRANSFERWARE POLYCHROME SMALL PLATTER OR TRAY

DEVONSHIRE PATTERN

Ridgways Potteries

Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire England

c. 1884

This wonderfully small Victorian aesthetic 7 3/4 " long x 5 5/8 " wide platter is transfer printed in brown and hand painted in orange luster.  A delightful size in a fabulous pattern.

The pattern features a fancy pin wheel flower border around a completely covered well with oversized daisy type flowers and a cartouche window of a Loon at water side.

The piece is marked on the underside with an impressed registration mark, the pattern name and trademark that identifies the maker as Ridgway, a pottery maker working in Stoke on Trent in the Staffordshire region of England during the 19th century.

Never Used.  The piece is in great condition.
