Monumental and Exceptional 19th C. Ironstone Porcelain Centerpiece Platter.

Truly gorgeous enamel detailing with scalloped gilt trimmed border, with floral, crests, and vine imagery.

Royal blue / purple, orange, red, old and bright gold, bright white, sky blue - INCREDIBLE!

Proper feet are built into the mold, giving it a higher profile fro presentation of a fine bird or roast. Fit for a feast for sure.

21.25" long by 16.25" wide by 2.5" tall.

Marked Ashworth Real Ironstone on the underside, with a crest of the British Royal Family.

Truly from the Chinoiserie / Chinese Export Trade Era, likely Hong Kong sourced.

In keeping with Aesop's fable, Fox and Crow's Motto is "Beware of False Flattery!" So, with each listing we offer a true confession about the item...

It's pure white English porcelain - without apology!

It presents an incredible array of bright color! Royal blue/ plum?! Wow!

It's MONUMENTAL - it OWNS the table!

It has clear marks, perfect patina, and is an instant heirloom.

And it's heavy...memorable in every way.

Display it year 'round, but promises us you'll use it when family are home for celebrations!
