Brand James Kent

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 and by James Kent Foley. 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 barn with hay in the back, closer to the house.  I just love the chintz / sheet patterned border on this plate...it blends effortlessly into the scene in which it frames.  The outer rim is scalloped with a darker, almost navy, blue.  

Measures: 9”
