AESTHETIC BLUE TRANSFERWARE PLATE

HANNOVER PATTERN

James Gildea, Late Mayers Potteries

Burslem, Staffordshire England

1889

This victorian aesthetic 8 1/2 " plate is transfer printed in dark rich blue. The clear and crisp HANNOVER pattern features a plethora of exotic wildflowers throughout the plate with a diagonal Japanesque flowery ribbon adding impact. Butterflies and honeybees dance gaily from flower stem to stem. A song bird is found hiding amongst the flowers. A fabulous pattern rarely seen. The pattern displays the victorian eras love of nature and travel to exotic lands.

Condition is EXCELLENT, clean and bright and appears to have never been used. No chips, no cracks, no hairlines and no repairs.
