| Description:
"An
English Delftware
tin-glazed charger attributed to the Abigail Griffith London
Lambeth pothouse. Great decorative blue and white delftware - boldly
painted in strong inky black-blue with a powerful and dramatic
landscape with chinoiserie buildings, hollow rocks
and
dominating weeping tree. The well of this large dish has a typical
border of
diaper pattern, while the brown edged rim is edged with graphic panel
border of stylised mons and diaper. A rare identified example of an eighteenth century English delft pottery charger
for the antiques enthusiastic." Antiques

| References: Identification
and attribution of English Delft or tin-glazed
earthenware, to specific areas and maker, is always difficult.
Noteworthy therefore to
find a surviving large example with comparative authoritative reference
examples in the Victoria and Albert Museum collection. An Abigail
Griffith Lambeth small blue and white bowl, with the same pattern, is
illustrated in the published V&A collection catalogue: Michael
Archer, Delftware The Tin-glazed Earthenware of the British
Isles
(London: The Stationary Office, 1997) Catalogue reference F 46; plate
206 illustrates the same pattern on a polychrome bowl. |

|
| Dimensions: width
336 mm max. approximately 13 1/4 inches. |
|
| Condition: A
good attractive reference example. Tin glazed earthenware is soft and
brittle so that edge chips are readily accepted and other damage is
often found. This piece has glued repairs from a previous break - most
clearly visible to
the back of the charger. It is sound and displays well showing off the
wonderful hand painted design to great effect as illustrated. |
