About the Item

An exquisite example of English ceramic artistry, this Mason’s Ironstone plate is decorated in the richly layered Imari palette of deep cobalt blue, iron red, and hand-applied gilding. Made in England in the early to mid-1800s, this piece combines the bold aesthetics of Japanese Imari ware with distinctly Victorian elements—creating a vibrant cross-cultural hybrid that captivated European collectors of the time. This plate showcases the classic Imari design reinterpreted through a British lens—featuring stylized peonies, lidded urns, and Chinese fretwork set against a crisp ivory ground. The scalloped rim adds further elegance, while the intricate border work and hand-painted florals create a sense of ornate harmony that is both striking and refined. Crafted from durable ironstone, a patented English ceramic material known for its strength and resistance to chipping, this plate is as functional as it is beautiful. The design is typical of the Regency and Victorian eras, with a Chinoiserie influence running through its decorative motifs and palette. Mason’s Ironstone is highly collectible, especially pieces from the early production period. The hand-painted detailing, excellent condition of the glaze, and the deep colors that have aged beautifully over time all speak to the craftsmanship and longevity of this piece. It is not merely a decorative plate—it is a historical artifact of 19th-century Anglo-Asian design. Imagine a plate that feels like a burst of garden opulence frozen in porcelain. The cobalt and iron red hues are bold but balanced, framed by a floral border that dances along the gently scalloped edges. There’s a tactile weight to it, typical of ironstone, and a subtle craquelure that adds to its antique charm. Charles James Mason patented Ironstone China in 1813, and it quickly became a staple of English households seeking luxury wares with everyday durability. The Imari patterns were inspired by imported Japanese porcelain, yet adapted to suit Western tastes—making them highly sought after during the height of the British Empire’s fascination with the East.
