Georgian Davenport Ironstone Desert Plate in Rare Pattern 85, Circa 1815

About the Item

This is a very good, late Georgian Ironstone Desert plate decorated in a rare pattern No.85, manufactured by the English Davenport factory, which was situated in Longport, Staffordshire, England and dating to Circa 1815. The plate is well potted with a slight wavy rim. It is finely decorated in a rare pattern No. 85 showing two exotic birds and a butterfly in a flowering bush, hand enamelled with many colours over a light blue transfer printed outline, with additional hand gilded detail. The quality of the hand enamelling is very good. Davenport were one of the earliest producers of Ironstone along with Mason's, Spode and others and called their ironstone pottery wears "Stone China". On the back the plate carries the rare blue printed circular Davenport Stone China Anchor mark for the period which was one of Davenport's very earliest marks, dating these fine pieces to circa 1815. The pattern number "85" is hand written in red by the inner base rim. Overall, a beautiful and decorative English Georgian Desert Plate about 200 years old.

Georgian Davenport Very Large Plate ironstone in Stork Pattern No 24, Circa 1815
By Davenport Porcelain
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is a finely hand painted large and rare early Stone China (Ironstone) plate / stand or platter which dates to the George 111 period, circa 1815. Made by the DAVENPORT factory of Longport, Staffordshire Potteries, England. The plate is very well potted with a slightly raised central circular section. This plate is beautifully hand painted in a pattern called "Stork", which is pattern number 24 and one of Davenport's very few Chinoiserie patterns. This bold pattern features polychrome enamels with a stork, chrysanthemum and peony in an oriental garden. There are under-glaze blue transfers in under-glaze cobalt blue, with orange, pink, and brown over-glaze enamels. The pattern is embellished with excellent hand gilding. This pattern is a match to the Ralph & James Clews pattern called " Crane in Chinese Garden". A photo of the Clews plate in this pattern is on page 142 of Griselda Lewis' "A Collector's History of English Pottery". The mark on the base of the Plate or Platter is Godden's 1183, a blue printed DAVENPORT STONE CHINA...
