Fine and Rare Coalport Plate Painted by Tom Keeling, Circa 1901.

1900 - 1920
Description

Fine and rare Coalport plate painted by Tom Keeling, circa 1901.

This is a beautiful example of a fine cabinet plate with gilt gadrooned rim featuring a rare subject – a scene of 'Mother and Child' after Joshua Reynolds.

Thomas Keeling was born in 1864 in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. He started his career at Copeland and spent there a couple of years painting figure subjects on tiles. In the early 1900 he moved to Coalport where he worked for nearly a decade as a principal artist specialising in fruit, animal studies, figures and portrait heads.

The plate is signed 'T. Keeling, '01', titled and marked to the reverse with a green Coalport mark.

Dimensions: diameter – 23 cm.

Condition: excellent condition without any damage or repair, small amount of fine glaze crazing, mainly to the reverse of the plate and hardly any wear to gold.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A cabinet plate is a decorative porcelain dish produced primarily for display rather than functional dining, widely popularised during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Coalport pieces from this period were crafted from fine bone china, decorated with hand-painted enamel illustrations, and finished with raised gilt detailing.

Authentic items feature printed or impressed factory backstamps on the underside, often accompanied by artist signatures, painter marks, or pattern numbers.

Display the piece on a dedicated acrylic or wire stand upon a mantelpiece, incorporate it into a glass-fronted display cabinet, or arrange it as part of a gallery wall.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and a mild liquid detergent with a soft cloth, avoiding dishwashers, abrasive pads, and chemical cleaners that damage gilding and enamel.
