REDUCED Most Unusual Large Flow Blue Platter, CYPRUS, Ridway, Bates, & Co. c. 1857
Shipping/Handling: To Be Determined
Insurance: $2.15 USD
Price for shipping to USA
This large flow blue platter measures 14 1/4" x 18 1/2". There is a 1/4" blue border. The rim is covered with bamboo-like leaves and feathery foliage. Four large detailed butterflies are placed around the rim design. The center has an oriental landscape with a large bird (Eagle or vulture) and two other birds. There are lily pads and other flowers in the foreground. It is marked J.R.B. CYPRUS with a British flag and banner. These initials were used by John Ridway Bates & Co. Staffordshire Pottery 1856-58. There is an impressed Ironstone. There is a large flake on the edge front. Otherwise, this is a gorgeous platter. May be worth professional restoration.
