LARGE VICTORIAN TRANSFERWARE PLATE

ROSEBUD PATTERN

Grove & Stark Potteries

Longton, Staffordshire England ~ c. 1883

This large Victorian aesthetic 10 1/2 " wide exciting plate is transfer printed in dark chocolate brown.  The clear and crisp pattern features bristling rose flowers in bud surrounding scrolls and ribbons and geometric circles.  One shows a young boy blowing bubbles for the delight of his girl companion.  The larger one has two exotic birds atop the scroll watching as a young boy with his Butterfly or Fish net sheepishly communing with a young girl.  Delightful !!

Never Used.  Clean, shiny and bright.  No wear, no cracks, no hairlines and no repairs.  A very small flake off the outer rim.
