For consideration is this outstanding and rare polychromed purple transferware plate by Ridgways in the Oriental pattern.

An Eastern scene with mountains in the background is depicted on the face of the plate. The border is a gorgeous blend of fully bloomed roses.

Other pieces in this pattern are also listed.
