BLUE TRANSFER WARE PLATE

Here is one of my favorite patterns ever...Farm...produced in the mid 1800's and later as Rural Scenes or Pastoral Davenport by Royal Staffordshire. The scene depicts a farm with cattle grazing in the yard, pigs in the foreground and a boy feeding chickens. There is a huge thatched English birdhouse to the left and a covered bard with hay in the back, closer to the house. The border is a unique and beautiful blend of scrolls, diamonds and grape leaves. There is some crazing which is commensurate to age...nothing signiificant. Truly beautiful!
