The form is classic - an oval well with a broad, gently shelved rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: The front face presents well, with the transfer print clear and the pale blue glaze intact. There is overall crazing to the glaze, consistent with age and entirely expected for English earthenware of this period. The reverse shows the crazing more prominently, along with scattered brown kiln spots and age-related discolouration. A yellowish stain or residue is visible in the upper left area of the reverse - likely a previous repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: To come\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Workers Cottage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42745023234146,"sku":"TWC120","price":120.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/4440\/3810\/files\/DSCF2485.jpg?v=1776313497","url":"https:\/\/theworkerscottage.nz\/products\/victorian-blue-and-white-transfer-print-meat-platter-oriental-scenic-pattern","provider":"The Workers Cottage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
