Dated: 1750 Bristol England

English delftware large-sized dish painted in polychrome with a spray of three stylized flowers and leaves in red, green, yellow, and blue. The border is decorated with brown linking swags of flowers and leaves. The naive decoration and strong primary colors make a dramatic and appealing statement. However, this pattern is more commonly found on smaller plates, and the charger is a rarer example. Attribution is Redcliff Back, Richard Frank Delftworks Bristol.
