Description

A rare large , multicoloured, Bristol delft plate, with scalloped edge, the centre delicately painted with a lakeside scene and two figures conversing. This is the highly fashionable Chinoiserie taste which swept the country at this time. Bianco supra bianco was probably introduced into England by Magnus Lundburg, an artisan from the Rorstrand factory in Sweden, in the 1750s, who was likely employed at the Redcliff Back Pottery in Bristol.

As is usual with delftware there are some nibbles to the edge.

SIZE: 12 inches diameter.

PROVENANCE: The Collection of Sir William Whitfield CBE, St Helen Hall, County Durham. (Image 4)

FAQs

Bristol delftware refers to tin-glazed earthenware manufactured in Bristol, England, during the 17th and 18th centuries, renowned for its distinct decorative techniques and palette.

These pieces were crafted from a buff or pinkish earthenware body, covered in an opaque white tin glaze known as a enamel, and hand-painted with metallic oxide pigments before a final firing.

Authentic bianco supra bianco pieces feature intricate white-on-white opaque decoration applied over a slightly tinted tin glaze, typically showing characteristic foot rim firing marks and crazing consistent with 18th-century manufacture.

Antique plates add historic character when mounted on walls using plate hangers, displayed on plate racks, or showcased on wooden mantelpieces alongside modern minimalist decor.

Antique earthenware requires gentle dusting with a soft, dry brush, must be kept away from direct sunlight, and should never be immersed in water or cleaned with chemical solvents due to the fragile nature of the tin glaze.
