| A handsome British ironstone 12" x 9-1/2" blue transfer platter with a lovely Chinese scene and floral border with teal and rose pink over-painting. Marked 5/75 M (probably for March or May, 1875) with a 2 and the hand painted pattern number 6369 3, this platter is in excellent condition, with no chips, cracks, wear, crazing, repairs or damage; there is a bit of brown discolouration on some parts of the inner rim and wear through to the brown clay on the bottom, as would be expected on a piece this age, and the interior of the platter has lost its sheen from a fine network of cut marks which has worn off a bit of the gloss, but has left the pattern intact. There is a flaw in the glaze (see picture closeup) which could either be a glaze flaw with a small stress crack which has allowed minor browning, or an old impact. It is not a chip, and does not appear to be cracked, and the glaze is intact and in no danger of flaking. A prize for your kitchen or wall display. Surface shipping starts at $18 (to the US - other spots may vary) - insured is higher. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US. | ||
