Središnji sadržaj

The platter is made of porcelain, oval in shape, with gently undulating edges. The base is covered with a dark brown decoration. In the middle of the platter, there is a figurative depiction of women and men in nature. It is framed by a wide meshed ribbon with flowers and four small elliptical fields in the corners with figural representations. On the back, there is an inscription PARK SCENERY.

The manufacturer is English, specifically a company from the city of Middlesbrough, dating back to around 1845. This can be precisely determined thanks to the impressed mark LONDON IS. The platter features the motif of Park Scenery, which was popular in the mid-19th century and was produced by many renowned English manufacturers, the most famous being John Carr & Sons.

It is also made in the style of the so-called transferware pottery.
