This set of 13 porcelain luncheon plates was produced in England by Royal Crown Derby in 1905. The date cipher indicates this year. Two artists signed the plates, E. Clark and C. Harris. The plates measure 8 7/8” in diameter. The fine white bone china is molded, rounding out the center and giving it depth. The rims are contoured so that the plates are divided into 6 segments. The border is cobalt blue enamel with 6 green enamel cartouches. Each one contains hand painted flowers or exotic birds. The paintings are in fine detail and vivid colors. The cartouches are outlined in raised gold with raised gold flowers and gilded ornaments. A band of gilt filigree accents the interior edge of the border. The outer rim of the plate is beaded. These plates were made to order for Phillip’s of Mount Street, London. The monogram “H” is hand painted in the most minute flowers. The expert artistry and meticulous gilding make these plates a splendid addition to any table.
