    Staffordshire Childs Pearlware Toy Platter Tray
    FLOW BLUE DIMITY
    Thomas Dimmock and Co. Staffordshire England c 1840
    This is a scarce miniature transferware platter or meat plate c1840, originally part of a complete miniature children's dinner service. The diminutive octagonal tray measures just 3-1/2 inches long. Extremely well potted, to the standards usually only seen in full-size Staffordshire table wares, transfer printed in a cobalt flow blue with an overall star or snowflake sheet print and a contrasting scroll border trim, finished with pearlware glaze.
    The piece is
    un
    marked.
    Sometimes found
    marked with the embossed initials of the maker, Thomas Dimmock, a well known pottery maker in the Staffordshire region of England from 1828-1859. The pattern name is "DIMITY". A very popular pattern, documented in Doris Lechler's
    English Toy China
    as pattern #87.
    The plate is in great condition with no chips cracks or repairs. Typical transfer imperfections, underglaze gouge, smudges and other typical manufacturing imperfections original to the making. Impeccably made, a fine little specimen. Sold as is, as shown.
