the shaped rim with shell-molded edging painted blue, the face transfer-printed with a pattern of moths and foliate sprigs centering a carnation. Crescent mark to underside. Circa 1780. 1 1/2" H, 10" W, 12 1/4" L.
Literature: Branyan/French/Sandon - Worcester, Blue and White Porcelain 1751-1790, p. 400, illustrate examples of the pattern.
Catalogue Note: See Hunter, Ceramics in America, for a discussion of shell versus feather molding in plates. For Worcester, this modeling is unusual in wares such as these.
Very good condition, minor pitting to surface from firing, and some black speckles.
