A very rare commemorative plate with portraits of King William and Queen Mary. This stunning delftware plate is the work of the London potters probably from the Vauxhall area. The plate is decorated in shades of blue and orange with portraits of the crowned King and Queen naively rendered. King William is wearing Coronation robes and it almost certain that this piece would have been produced to commemorate this event.
