This Regency Bloor Derby porcelain dessert plate exhibits an apple green ground band framing a central hand-painted spray of pink Sweet William flowers. The glaze features scattered insects, a gadrooned gilt rim, and a small reserve containing a marquess armorial crest. Measuring 22.2 cm wide and 2.5 cm high, the piece uses porcelain, enamel, and gold leaf materials in an apple green, white, and pink colour palette. Suitable for display on a sideboard top in a traditional interior, the plate serves as a decorative accessory. The object displays a red Bloor Derby stamp to the underside and a moulded scalloped edge with gilded detailing, presenting a grand Regency design style.

FAQs

Bloor Derby porcelain refers to ceramics produced at the Derby factory between 1811 and 1848 under the management of Robert Bloor. This era is characterised by vibrant enamel colours, rich gilding, ornate borders, and detailed hand-painted floral or heraldic decoration.

These plates were crafted from fine English soft-paste or bone porcelain, featuring hand-burnished gilding and intricate hand-painted enamel illustrations. Artisans applied custom coats of arms or armorial crests to order for prominent families.

Authentic pieces often feature red printed or impressed factory marks containing the name Bloor Derby, alongside heavy gilding and characteristic apple green or dark blue ground colours. The precision of the hand-painted botanical studies and soft translucency of the paste also indicate authenticity.

Display the plate on a dedicated stand upon a wooden sideboard, or group several botanical plates inside a classic display cabinet or wall plaque arrangement. Pairing brightly coloured porcelain with dark wood or modern neutral backdrops highlights its detailed paintwork.

Clean gently by hand using lukewarm water and a mild detergent, avoiding abrasive sponges that could scratch the enamel or wear away the delicate gilding. Never submerge in hot water or place in a modern dishwasher.
