About the Item
This striking blue and white transferware platter by Palissy, a historic Staffordshire pottery and later subsidiary of Royal Worcester, is a charming embodiment of English craftsmanship and country life. The piece features the beloved Avon Scenes pattern — a romantic pastoral landscape framed by lush floral borders and rolling trees, all intricately captured through hand-engraved copperplate printing.
Unlike modern reproductions, this platter is a true product of English ceramic tradition. Its rich cobalt hues and crisp details are the result of hand-engraved transferware techniques — a method nearly lost in contemporary ceramics. Its generous size, exceptional clarity of pattern, and historical lineage through Royal Worcester make it not just decorative, but collectible. As transferware grows increasingly sought after, particularly pieces with clean marks and timeless countryside motifs, this platter offers both beauty and investment value.
The piece has a satisfying weight and a creamy ivory base that enhances the depth of the inky blue design. The scene depicted is tranquil and storybook-like — a genteel couple strolling under trees, with a grand estate in the background and sheep dotting the fields. The floral border is raised slightly, giving the surface a gentle texture. It feels heirloom-worthy in the hand — polished, sturdy, and quietly grand.
Palissy Pottery dates back to the late 18th century and became known for its robust and finely detailed ironstone and earthenware. By the mid-20th century, it operated under the Royal Worcester group, one of England’s most prestigious porcelain manufacturers. The Avon Scenes design draws inspiration from the English Romantic period, capturing an idealized rural life that appealed to both domestic and export markets. This piece was likely produced in the 1960s–70s, when traditional craftsmanship still defined much of British ceramics.
