Infuse your table with late-Victorian elegance using this rare J.H. Weatherby & Sons "Woodland" Platter.
A truly grand statement piece of English pottery history, this authentic semi-porcelain serving platter was produced by J.H. Weatherby & Sons in Hanley, Staffordshire, England. Dating precisely to the late 1890s, it bears the official British registration number Rd No 211256 stamped on the base. The highly collectible "Woodland" pattern features romantic, airy borders of delicate wild blossoms, climbing vines, and trailing forest ferns rendered in a beautifully soft, sepia-toned brown transferware print. Spanning a massive 16 inches, its elegantly scalloped, multi-lobed rim makes it an extraordinary centerpiece for holiday tables, traditional Sunday roasts, or a magnificent hutch display. [1]
