Description

Shell-moulded handles and a raised floral border frame the pavilion landscape on this blue and white serving dish.

The scene includes a domed building, palm trees and small figures, set within a border that combines flowers with shell-like moulding. Blue transfer decoration extends across the shallow interior, while the handles give the outline a clear horizontal emphasis. The unmarked reverse shows blue-green glaze pooling near the foot, a feature consistent with the proposed pearlware description. The blue-green tint contrasts with the white ground and remains most visible beside the foot and raised moulding. Crazing, discolouration and small areas of glaze loss on the reverse are retained in the condition notes. The pearlware attribution carries a proposed early nineteenth-century date, circa 1815 to 1830. Related pieces appear in Ceramics and Blues and Whites.
