Rare Irish Delft Octagonal Dish, c. 1760

An unusual delft octagonal dish, probably Irish and decorated with an oriental design of peonies, bamboo and rocks with four floral sprays at the rim, the reverse with sketchy floral decoration. Length: 9 ½ in. c.1760.

Minor glaze losses at rim. No other damage.

A very similar- but larger- dish is illustrated in British Delft at Williamsburg where it is attributed to either Liverpool or Dublin. The current example has a different profile and no decorator’s number to the reverse, however the book notes that a similar Irish delft pair were exhibited at Castletown in 1971.
