Antique Transferware Butter Pats Pair of Ridgways Naples Wreath And Mulberry Foliage

Ridgway, Ridgways England

SKU:
  • $ 000


This is a pair of antique transfer or transferware butter chips, butter pats or small butter plates.

 The first is by Ridgways, England from 1900-1910 in a pattern called The Naples Wreath measuring 3.25 inches in diameter and is made of semi porcelain with a polychrome  transfer garland and swag design.

 The butter pat is in very good ++ condition with no chips or cracks but does have an area of discoloration resulting from kiln dist and heat during the manufacturing process.

 The second is a mulberry transfer or transferware butter pat made in the 1890s with a mark that I can't identify. The ironstone butter pat has the name Catherine Mer...and I can't read the rest.

I don't know if it is a pattern name or manufacturer. The British Registry date for the pattern is 1894.

 The butter pat measures 3 inches in diameter and is made of embossed ironstone with a foliate mulberry transfer border pattern.

The butter pat, which makes a wonderful teabag caddy now, is in very good +++ condition with no chips or cracks but does have 2 tiny utensil marks from use.

 A great decorative and useful pair of antique butter pats.
