An oval serving dish or underplate from Royal Crown Derby’s Nottingham Road works, measuring 7.5" × 6". The decoration features cobalt, iron red, and gilt in a floral and scrollwork arrangement—an early iteration of the King’s pattern lineage. The red crown-over-crossed-batons-and-D mark confirms production between 1806 and 1825, during the Duesbury & early Bloor period. A beautiful example of Derby’s early 19th-century output.

👑 Condition

Excellent for its age, with no chips, cracks or restoration. Light crazing throughout. Gilt is slightly worn, but remains vivid, and the surface retains its original glaze. Foot ring is stable, and the mark is clearly impressed. Very little wear to gold along the edge of the rim. see photos.
