A lovely 19th century creamware colored transfer childs plate with a beautiful border of swags, bows and cartouches. The transfer shows a child holding a cane and talking with an older man. This plate traditionally is known s the Grandfather plate. It sometimes is seen with the name in the transfer and sometimes without. The plate dates C 1830 and is in excellent condition. These plates were given as rewards of merit and as gifts to 19th century children and are very charming. This was probably given to a 19th century child by a loving grandfather.
