Mason’s Ironstone Fruit Basket Pattern
About the Item
This antique square bowl by Mason’s Ironstone, featuring the classic Fruit Basket pattern in blue, is a beautifully preserved example of early 19th-century English ceramics. What makes it unique is the rare square shape—uncommon in traditional ironstone—and the vivid cobalt blue transferware scene that remains crisp and detailed even after nearly two centuries. The bowl balances decorative elegance with utilitarian charm, making it as suitable for display as it is for use.
If you haven’t seen this piece in person, imagine a rich blue pastoral still life at the center—a woven basket overflowing with grapes, peaches, and plums—surrounded by sprigs of flowers and fruit garlands that continue along the inner walls. The transfer pattern is fine and fluid, with light hand-painted touches of green and ochre that add dimension. The creamy ironstone glaze has the gentle warmth and slight crackle typical of antique pieces, giving it depth and character.
Produced in Staffordshire, England, during the Regency period (circa 1820s–1830s), this piece is part of Mason’s broader contribution to ironstone china—a durable, chip-resistant material designed to offer the elegance of porcelain with the strength of earthenware. The Fruit Basket design reflects the era’s fondness for natural abundance and ornamental symmetry, bringing a sense of wholesome luxury to the table.
For collectors of antique English ceramics or anyone drawn to timeless country-house charm, this Mason’s Ironstone bowl is a rare and soulful addition—versatile enough to hold fruit on a kitchen table or stand alone as a decorative centerpiece with story and substance.
