White plate with navy blue print including a boat, castle and the main floral design. Potters stamp: R A & Co / M. Household China White plate with navy blue print including a boat, castle and the main floral design. Ridgway & Abington Pottery. 270 mm across. 1835-1860
Good. Stained throughout. Fine discoloured hairline from rim comes in about 40 mm. Wear to the inner rim as it goes down to the flat part of the plate. Small flake to outer rim. Sticky grime throughout. The heavy crazing has rusty stains through it which gives this the stained look previously mentioned. Whilst the vendor mentioned this was Ridgway and Abington pottery, we could not find this mark in reference to that potter, so I am not sure on that? It certainly looks to be a mid 1800s plate. Grade: 6.5 Estimate: $20 - 30
