Four 8” Flow Blue Utzchneider plates Germany Persian Moss Pattern


 


It’s lovely to find four matching plates that are over 100 years old. Made in Germany. These flow blue lunch plates are decorated with the Persian Moss pattern.
The dishes are without chips or cracks. However, they do have some fine crazing that you would expect in dishes this age. They are missing some of the gold highlighting on the dishes. And there are various glaze skips misses and rubs that happened during part of the manufacturing process. I’ve shown this in the last couple of pictures.

Large 1891 W. H. Grindley platter 19.25” long BRUSSELS Pattern flow blue floral tray


 This antique platter is amazing!

It is in the most pristine condition I have ever seen in a serving piece. The platter measures a honking 19.25”x 13.25“ ( I’m figuring we’re talking 40 pound turkey size here).
The flow blue floral transfer decorated platter was made in England circa 1891 by WH Grindley and Company.
In remarkable condition, the surface shines like new. The serving piece must’ve been put away and a hope chest many many years ago.

1896 John Maddock & Sons Royal Vitreous Heumann Platter Vitrified China Large Heavy Platter 17 inches


No Chips! No Cracks! No Crazing!


It does however show age --- some area of edge discoloration, and some (surprisingly not deep) utensil marks. For that reason, I Rate it in Very Good Condition.

The flow blue transfer work is in a beautiful crescent garland design.
