Georgian Staffordshire Mandarin Pattern Blue and While Pearlware Plate, c. 1810

Mandarin pattern blue and white plate with a central willow tree leaning left over the water. A junk sails between two pavilions. The nankin or inner border below the shoulder of the plate is of a honeycomb type, with a trellis border and dagger bead, characteristic of Chinese wares around the rim.

The plate is unmarked. They have scratches commensurate with age, some pitting and pooling of the glaze.
