Early 1900s Pottery Buffalo Pottery Deldare "Dr Syntax" Plate

About the Item

The title of this plate is "Dr. Syntax Making a Discovery," and it includes a short verse: "Thus passing on his chance to see, beneath an overshadowing tree, Patrick engaged in amorous guise, devouring Susan with his eyes." The hand-colored transfer shows Dr. Syntax in the distance with a shocked hand to his mouth. In the foreground we indeed see Patrick staring not so innocently at Susan from behind. The plate has an emerald and khaki border and is marked on the back: "1911, Buffalo Pottery, Emeral Deldare Ware Underglaze" with the Buffalo Mark.".

Early 19th Century Plate Porcelain Finely Hand Painted, Staffordshire UK Ca 1825
By Staffordshire
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is an early 19th century porcelain Plate or desert dish with a molded wavy edge to the rim, made by one of the quality Staffordshire, English potteries and dating from the George 111rd period, circa 1820 to 1830.
