Dark Blue Historical Staffordshire 16 3/8" Shells Platter

Circa 1822-1834: This graphic dark blue Shells pattern historical Staffordshire platter was produced in England by both Joseph Stubbs (1822-1834) and the partnership of Stubbs and Kent (1822-1830) for the American market. The platter measures 16 3/8" x 13 3/8" and remains in superb condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs and only typical factory firing anomolies and expected minor shelf wear on the reverse. It's difficult to find 200-year-old pottery in such fine condition, and this handsome platter will make a great addition to one's collection.
