Lot 479: An Assortment of Victorian and Early 20th-Century British Earthenware and Ironstone Ceramics
A collection of mixed British earthenware and ironstone ceramics featuring various transfer-printed and hand-coloured decorations, typical of late Victorian and early 20th-century Staffordshire potteries. The collection includes:
A large footed basin of deep circular form with a flared rim and raised foot, decorated with a green and grey floral sprig transfer-ware pattern to the exterior and rim.
A square-form bowl with heavily scalloped edges, featuring transfer-printed and hand-coloured Orientalist style decoration. The design includes a central floral bouquet and blue scroll-work borders in a palette of red, blue, yellow, and green, finished with a gilt rim.
A large oval serving platter with a central transfer-printed motif of red and yellow roses, bordered by a textured gold-stipple gilt rim.
A shallow circular bowl with a scalloped rim, decorated in an Imari-style palette with orange and black floral transfer sprays.
An oval serving platter with a moulded, scalloped rim, featuring a floral transfer-printed pattern in shades of pink, purple, and blue, possibly Royal Cauldon in the Victoria pattern.
Accessories include a small white circular bowl with a gilt rim and a sparse floral spray, and a small cream jug with a fluted body decorated with blue and white transfer-ware and orange-red floral accents.
No maker marks are clearly visible in the provided images. A lot tag numbered 479 is attached to the oval platter.
