Description
1840's Staffordshire Motto Nursery Plate Great Colors This comes straight from a terrific collection of early Staffordshire and historic china I bought over the weekend, and is a great example of Children's Staffordshire nursery ware.These were decorated with motto's & maxims to instruct the child in how to go on in life, and this is entitled "HE THAT BY THE PLOUGH WOULD THRIVE, HIMSELF MUST EITHER HOLD OR DRIVE. Franklins proverbs"This has a brown toned transfer in the center, which is highlighted with hand painted colors, showing a prosperous country home in the background, while the farmer ploughs his fields.This would date circa 1830's-1840's, and is in wonderful condition, with no chips, no cracks, no repairs, and all details crisp and sharp. There is NO staining, and almost no signs of ever having been used, with only the very faintest sign of a cut mark.This is marked on the reverse with an impressed star, and the border has a raised relief of strawberries, and their foliage.This is 6" in diameter, and would be a terrific addition to any collecotor of early Staffordshire, or Children's wares!Please check my other auctions for more lovely children's dishes from this same collection! All payments are expected within 10 days of auctions end. I do ship internationally and buyer pays ALL shipping costs. I do not charge for handling fees, strictly shipping. Personal checks must clear before item is shipped, this usually takes 5-7 days. Affordable Auction Management and Image Hosting Solutions @ inkFrog
