Ridgways Oriental Blue Transferware 5.75" Plate Gilt Antique c.1910

The backstamp identifies this as Ridgways “Oriental” pattern, made in England. The pattern was an older William Ridgway design that Ridgways later reissued; the plural “Ridgways” and “England” in the mark indicate later production rather than an original 1830s issue. Ridgways continued producing the Oriental pattern into the early 20th century.

Beautiful antique Ridgways English porcelain plate in the Oriental pattern, decorated in blue transferware with a central exotic architectural landscape surrounded by floral and scenic cartouches. A thin gilt rim adds a refined decorative finish. At approximately 5.75 inches across, this is a charming smaller plate suitable for display, cabinet collections, or blue-and-white transferware groupings.

Good antique condition with visible age-related crazing, surface wear, minor transfer irregularities, and wear to the gilt rim. Please review photos closely for condition.
