| For the lovers of delft and I am one, this is the best delft plate I have seen in a long time. The plate is blue and white and has an octagonal border which is very pretty. The plate is C 1740 and probably Liverpool. The delft plate is detailed with a bowl of flowers, oriental emblems including rhinoceros horn cups with ribbons. this oriental influence is correct for the period. The back of the plate is decorated with three simple scrolls. The delft plate is 9" and the condition is excellent. No chips or crackling, no restoration. I show close ups of two very minor flakes on 2 of the octagonal sides. But considering its age, I have to say this is acceptable. See Archer, pg 178 B1274 for a similar plate. | ||
