BROWN TRANSFER WARE RECTANGLE SHAPED PLATTER

For consideration is this scenic plate/tray depicting a afarm / harvest scene with men atop a huge hay pile loading a horse drawn cart below. There are chickens in the foreground. The border is one of my favorites, being a mix of farming impelements including a rake, hoe. shovel and bee skep mixed with lattice, ivy and berries.

Measures: 6.5" x 5.25"

Condition: There is one chip/ flake on the back, not visible from the front/top. There is some crazing, commensurate to age. The plate is marked and stamped on the back as follows: Rural Scenes Royal Staffordshire Pottery England A. J. Wilkinson Ltd The Biarritz Royal Staffordshire great Britain Regd. No 784849
