This gorgeous transferware celery dish is hard to find! The monochromatic blue transfer on this dish is a tranquil waterway scene with an elaborate foot bridge over a serene waterfall. A pair of swans gather under the bridge in the foreground while a sailboat drifts in the background. A large urn of enormous flower blossoms adorns the right of the scene, and a manor house with turret and gazebo is at the left. In the background there are mountains, buildings, and islands, and trees are scattered appropriately throughout this lovely scene.
