An antique Staffordshire pottery tortoiseshell Whieldon octagonal plate c.1765

An antique Staffordshire pottery tortoiseshell Whieldon octagonal Plate with ribbed border. From the Elcombe Collection, item number 94.

These plates are sometimes referred to as Wheildon or Whieldon type wares, the correct terms is Tortoiseshell ware which have the same body as Creamware, but were decorated with metallic oxides. When the wares were fired the colours mixed and produced a streaky or mottled effect. These types of wares were produced by various manufacturers in the Staffordshire area and should not be referred to simply as Whieldon. The excavation of Whieldon's factory at Fenton uncovered several examples of this type of pottery which made it possible to attribute only a few wares of tortoiseshell to Whieldon - See Bergesen's British ceramics (1992) p.60

Circa 1765

Good Overall Antique Condition with a restored section on rim - please view images: this restored area is mainly on the front of the ribbed area and does not pass the ribbing - a good Plate overall from the Elcombe Collection
