AESTHETIC DARK BROWN TRANSFERWARE POLYCHROME PLATTER
DEVONSHIRE PATTERN
Ridgways Potteries
Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire England
c. 1884
This Victorian Aesthetic Movement 12 " long x 8 1/2 " wide platter is transfer printed in dark brown and finished with hand painted orange highlights. The pattern features a fancy pin wheel flower border around a completely covered well with oversized daisy type flowers and three magnificent cartouches. One of Japanesque bamboo, one of a smiling fish swimming amongst the seaweed corral and seashells, and the largest is of a Hummingbird perched in the branches watching the sun set over the landscape.
Condition is great. Never used.
