🌿 Please note

These are genuine older pieces and will naturally show minor signs of their previous life. Crazing, light utensil marks, small manufacturing irregularities and gentle surface wear are characteristic of antique English ceramics and contribute to their individual history.

This listing is for ONE platter. Please select either “A. Alexis” or “B. Shrewsbury” from the menu at checkout.

💌 Rimantique Note:
Two very different expressions of classic English green transferware — the ornate ribbon-and-floral decoration of Ridgway’s Alexis beside the quieter botanical elegance of Losol Ware Shrewsbury. Both are increasingly lovely finds for collectors and make exceptional display pieces.

Thank you for looking!
