About the Item

This exquisite antique porcelain plate was made by Barr Flight Barr Worcester, in England, between 1807 and 1813. At its center, it features a finely hand-painted depiction of a cone shell, Conus textile, rendered in soft tones of ivory and reddish brown with coral fronds. The beautiful central image is framed by a gorgeous aqua band, while the outer edge features neoclassical gilt motifs on a white ground. Shell painting, like this, reflects the Regency period’s fascination with marine biology and global exploration, and is driven by the influence of newly published conchological illustrations. This plate combines precise draftsmanship with a refined Regency-era color palette. Dimensions: 8.25" diameter Condition: Excellent Price: $720 **Key Features** - Fine English porcelain from the Regency period - Made by Barr Flight Barr Worcester, 1807–1813 - Hand-painted cone shell (*Conus textile*) with coral fronds - Wide aqua ground framed in gilt - Neoclassical gilt border on white porcelain - Reflects early 19th-century interest in natural history and global discovery
