About the Item

Rare massive early antique Mason's Ashworth Ironstone Chinoiserie pattern hand painted enamel over transfer decoration meat serving footed platter with reservoir for "au jus" 19th Century Vibrant, joyful colors of orange, mulberry, cobalt blue, green, yellow, pink and russet compose an artful paisley pattern border with floral elements, surrounding a central motif of Chinoiserie style Bird of Paradise perched on a twisted branch of oversize peony flowers. With finely hand enameled details on cobalt blue transfer pattern. The hand painted raised enameling gives this piece a distinctive hand crafted appearance. Marked on the back with a large elaborate Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom Warrant with the motto "Honi Soit Qui Mal y Pense" which translates to "Shamed be (the person) who thinks of evil" in the Anglo-Norman language used by the medival ruling class in England. This is also the motto of the British chivalric Order of the Garter, the highest of all British knighthoods. An underglaze blue crescent mark is also present which coinsides with Early Royal Worcester Dr. Wall period. It is possible that the ceramic form is from that period. Blank forms were often purchased by succeeding potteries to be used as the value of the ceramic wares were quite substantial. This rare Ashworth pattern has an unusual Neo-Gothic border in cobalt blue surrounding the central mofit. Beautiful large scale serving platter wonderful for display and dinning. Additional pieces in the same pattern are available for purchase- please contact for details. Length: 16.5 inches Height: 12.75 inches Marks: Royal warrant underglaze blue mark, underglazed blue cresent mark Condition: Very Good, light surface wear to the enameling and to the back commensurate with age.
