Ridgways Coaching Days A Duel Putney Heath Handled Dish England Antique c1900

Antique Ridgways handled dish from the “Scenes from Coaching Days & Coaching Ways” series, featuring the named scene “A Duel on Putney Heath.” The detailed black transfer scene depicts a gathering associated with a duel on Putney Heath, set against a warm amber-brown glaze with silver-luster trim. The shaped scalloped rim and molded handles make this an attractive example of early English series ware.

Good antique condition with overall glaze crazing, light surface scratches and age-related wear to the silver-luster trim. There are minor manufacturing imperfections typical of period pottery. The transfer decoration remains detailed and attractive. No chips, cracks or repairs noted.
