Durham Ox Blue and White Meatplate circa 1810
This is the classic English platter.
It has a lovely glaze and has is a particularly fine print for this design.
This scene of the Durham Ox with his owner John Day
is taken from an engraving by J.Whessell after a painting by
T. Boultbee, published in 1802.
No marked pieces have been found in this famous series
and the maker remains unknown.
A must for any blue and white collection,
this example is in excellent condition and has no restoration.
