Decorated in soft blush-pink transferware with delicate birds and naturalistic foliage, on a warm ivory ground. This is such an attractive raised gâteau serving plate.
 
It embodies the romance of the Aesthetic Movement.A beautiful example of late Victorian transferware with the graceful bird motifs. It was made by Brown-Westhead, Moore & Co., Staffordshire, in the beloved Canova pattern between 1870 and 1890. But interestingly, it is stamped with the French Déposé mark, indicating it was imported to Paris, probably for the Grand Depot.
 
The raised plate is in great antique condition 2" tall and 9" wide.
