Booths "British Scenery" Brown Transferware Plates – Set of Two
About the Item
This set of two vintage brown transferware plates from Booths England, part of the classic "British Scenery" series, is a charming example of early 20th-century English ceramics. Each plate features a richly detailed pastoral scene—complete with cottages, grazing animals, and towering trees—framed by a border of sculpted foliage and grapevines. The scalloped edges add an elegant touch, while the warm sepia tones lend a timeless, rustic appeal.
These plates are collectible not only for their exquisite detail and craftsmanship, but for the story they tell—of rural life, slow beauty, and the charm of old-world England. The romanticism of the countryside is captured in crisp lines and tonal depth, characteristic of the transfer printing process that was perfected in Staffordshire.
Authentic, marked Booths England pieces in this condition are increasingly rare. Their decorative value, combined with historic craftsmanship and the enduring appeal of transferware, makes them highly sought after by collectors and stylists alike. These are not just plates—they’re heirlooms.
Sturdy in hand and smooth to the touch, these plates have a weight and finish that speak of quality. The glaze is glossy and even, with just the right amount of age-related patina to feel storied but well cared for. Whether styled on a shelf or used to serve a rustic tart, they command attention and conversation.
Booths was a renowned English pottery company based in Tunstall, Staffordshire, with a legacy dating back to the late 1800s. The "British Scenery" pattern is one of its most celebrated collections, beloved for its nostalgic narrative scenes and intricate borders. Produced in the early to mid-20th century, these pieces were often part of full dinner services designed to elevate everyday meals.
