Enoch Wood Reticulated Dish

This is a really nice earthenware tray made by Enoch Wood and Sons in Burslem , England in the early 19th century. While the more well known Wedgwood family is also from this town other families like the Wood family made some nice wares as well. This piece is particularly nice with the reticulated rim, the historical blue transfer scene to the center and the pink lusterware trim to the edge. About as nice a piece as you can find by them in this style. A bit of blue trim to the reticulation, a blue rope trim around the edge of the well, a blue leaf and flower design to the rim and that nice scene in the center of a manor including people. horses and a dog. I could not find which manor or residence this scene depicts but they often show important houses in the US and England. The blue color is nice and strong and the scene quite crisp. The piece is in superb condition with some light knife marks, three stilt marks to the top as well as the underside from the firing process and some very light wear to the pink luster. The platter is marked underneath as shown with the impressed ENOCH WOOD & SONS BURSLEM mark with an eagle in the center as well as a small impressed triangle mark. The dish is 1.125 inches tall, 10.125 inches wide and 8.25 inches deep. The mark was used between 1818 and 1846 but this piece dates to the earlier part of that period.
