AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Pair of lobed and slightly oblong porcelain plates (feldspathic porcelain, Felspar Porcelain), made by the English manufacturer Spode between 1821 and 1833.
These service pieces are distinguished by a complex hand-painted decoration: a deep cobalt blue border under glaze, enriched with fine gold gilding featuring detailed motifs of grape leaves and flowers. Feldspathic porcelain, a technical innovation patented by Josiah Spode II in 1821, grants the paste a whiteness and translucency characteristic of high-quality production of the Regency era.
Marks and signatures:
• Plate 1: Purple printed mark “Spode Felspar Porcelain” under a crown of roses and hand-painted red decoration number.
• Plate 2: Red handwritten mark “Spode” and corresponding decoration number.
Condition:
Excellent condition.
• Structure: No cracks, no chips, no hairlines, and no old or modern restorations.
• Decoration and gilding: The fine-gold motifs have retained their original brilliance and relief. Wear to the gilding is minimal and localized at contact points, which is exceptional for pieces of this period.
• Glaze: The original glaze remains perfectly smooth and glossy.
Dimensions: 24 cm x 22 cm
