Description
For sale is an amazing antique porcelain pair of plates; the markings are from the Robert Bloor Derby era, circa 1820-1848.I have shown views of both plates in the pictures. These plates have an ecclesiastical design, made for a Bishop or Arch Bishop, in gold in the well of each plate. They have a coat of arms that are also a part of other serving pieces, also for sale. To describe Coat of Arms, they consist of: 2 crosses, a lamb, a key and a shepherd's staff, a bird, leaf and a crown.
There are 10 reserves, each separated by a swirling gold double border and topped with double raised cobalt blue enamel, hand painted, stylized acanthus leaves. A beautiful pair!
Please watch for my other listings of this set which will have more plates, a heart shaped desert server, 2 platters and 2 covered tureens.
The plates measure 8-1/2" in diameter.
