A monumental serving platter in the Cenis pattern by Ridgways. The motif features branches with pineapples, emphasizing hospitality.

The platter wobbles, a not uncommon affliction of these older ceramic pieces as they were difficult to make in this size. This superb example dates to 1871, and is back stamped with Ridways Stoke on Trent, Cenis Dimension: 21 1/4" l
