AESTHETIC BROWN TRANSFERWARE PLATE

INDUS PATTERN

Ridgways Potteries

Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire England

c. 1885

This Victorian aesthetic 8 1/4 inch plate is transfer printed in brown.  The pattern features some of the most outrageous looking birds the potteries artist could imagine.  A rim of wildly tropical flowers with hummingbirds.  The well of the plate has aquatic orchid type flowers and cattails beneath two most unusual and exotic birds.  A marvel of the imagination.

Great Condition.
