Manufacturer: Staffordshire potter
Here is a grand pink lustre plaque measuring 9 by 8 inches. These old relics hark to a time when most of the mottos were hellfire and brimstone quotes. This one, however, bears a biblical verse full of faith and hope, "THOU GOD, SEE'ST ME." Also included is a trumpeting angel and Psalms XXXI, Verse 1, "In Thee O Lord do I put my trust, let me never be confounded." Brushstroke lustre foliates are added to each corner. A band of foliates in black transfer have been embellished with hand-painted red and green.
This piece dates to the 1815 - 30 period. It has two little chips on the edge of the lustre, left side. See the close-up. Thse are the only flaws. |
