Ridgways Coaching Days Racing Serving Dish England Antique c1905

Antique Ridgways English pottery two-handled serving dish from the “Scenes from Coaching Days & Coaching Ways” series, featuring the named scene “Racing.” The detailed black transfer depicts a spirited horse-drawn coach racing through the countryside, set against a warm amber-brown glaze with scalloped edges, molded handles and silver-colored lustre trim. The energetic equestrian subject makes this a particularly appealing piece for collectors of Ridgways, English transferware, coaching memorabilia and horse-themed antiques.

Good antique condition with overall crazing, light surface wear and age-related wear and tarnishing to the silver-colored lustre trim. The central “Racing” transfer remains strong and detailed with minor surface wear consistent with age and use. No chips, cracks or repairs .
