Description

FLOW BLUE RIDGEWAYS ENGLAND “GAINSBOROUGH” DINNER PLATE 9 7/8”.
Deep flow blue bleeds through and forms a rich indigo pattern and coloring (see photos).
Indigo blue design on a white background. Flowers, leaves and scrolls cover the entire field with two levels of raised flourishes on the inside border. Outermost flourish is edged with gold (which is present but worn).
Very good condition for its age, no cracks noted, flea bite chip on black edge not visible from front (see photo). Small amount of scratches from use and no staining or crazing noted. Darker whites in photos is shadowing because the plate design is slightly concave. Review photos carefully and ask any questions before purchase.
