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.

It is stamped in blue with a circular mark "Tonquin" Royal Staffordshire Dinnerware by Clarice Cliff/ Made in England and there is an embossed 532 at the left. This mark was used circa 1945 to 1964.
