Very nice set of 3 antique majolica plates measuring 8" across. Each plate has 3 overlapping leaves. The plates are very thick and heavy. There are no chips or cracks, but one plate has a couple of spots on the rim of loss of paint, but is not very notisable. The center of the plates have some loss of paint on the high points. Very hard to find a matching set!
Fabulous antique purple/mulberry handled platter, 1840's. Based on the backstamp, I believe it was made by John Ridgway around 1840's. It is quite large and heavy measuring 15.75" across from end of handle to handle. The handles are lovely with great detail, embossed leaf scrolls and gold highlights. The transfer pattern is lovely with beautiful florals, vases, and geometrics. The backstamp has the lion and unicorn mark. There is quite a bit of crazing and some discoloration. ...click for details
Romantic Staffordshire transferware pitcher that dates to 1830's. The pattern is a classic Greecian scene with Ravenna holding a child with another child at her feet.

It is marked on the bottom Ravenna in a scroll border and there are embossed lettering. I could find no chips or cracks and ...click for details
This is a lovely antique pink lustre creamer, c. 1820. It has a border of pink lustre around the neck and down the handle and on one side are florals, butterflies, and a damsal fanning another damsal. On the other side are florals and a gentleman holding an instrument. It measures 4" high to the top of the handle and 5" long. There are no chips, there are some small tight hairline cracks, and there is fading. There are no markings. A wonderful piece from this era!
Very old large pink lustre egg cup. I think the pink lustre is particularly pretty. It measures 3.5" high and 3.5" wide and has no chips, cracks, crazing or repairs. It does have some fading of lustre in some areas and I have included several photos to show this. This would be a great addition to your collection!
