A Rare Wedgwood Bone China Plate with Painted with a 'Lapwing' C.1815

19th century
Description

A rare Wedgwood Bone China Plate c.1815. The central reserve, very finely painted with a 'Lapwind', the border decorated with 3 groups of naturalistically painted feathers.

Previously this style of painting has been attributed to the artist Aaron Steele, owing to an annotation in the Wedgwood pattern books in the 1900's by the then Wedgwood Curator, however this attribution is now thought to be incorrect.

Printed Wedgwood mark in red along with subject title in puce script. 

Condition: Very good with just some light surface wear and a tiny chip to the footrim. A little wear to the gilding around the rim.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

English Regency bone china plates were produced during the early nineteenth century, characterised by high translucency, fine hand-painted naturalistic motifs, and delicate gilded rims inspired by neo-classical and natural history tastes.

These pieces were crafted from a mixture of china stone, china clay, and calcified animal bone ash, fired at high temperatures before being hand-painted with enamel pigments and finished with gilded borders.

Authentic early Wedgwood bone china pieces typically feature impressed or painted maker marks, visible hand-painted brushwork rather than transfer prints, subtle irregularities in the glaze, and period-appropriate gilding wear.

Antique cabinet plates can be mounted on a wall in a curated gallery grouping or displayed upright on plate stands within dark wood shelving or a contemporary glazed sideboard.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and a mild detergent with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or immersion in water, and never wash in a dishwasher.
