This Delft blue and white dish was hand-painted in England in the 18th century circa 1760. The painting is quite naive but eye-catching. In the center, we see a large blue ground before three homes, each with a chimney. To the left, we see a large peony, and to the right, a pine tree. The wide border shows six flower buds on the vine, and along the edge are scrolling vines.

This gorgeous pair of blue and white English Delft plates was made in Bristol, England, circa 1760. The lovely floral decoration is hand painted in shades of cobalt blue on a light cobalt blue ground.
