Fancy Pate sur Pate Plate #1

This is a very detailed pate-sur-pate plate made by Mintons in the early 20th century though I am not sure since I cannot read the date code. It has three different scenic panels in the pate sur pate technique on the rim and is otherwise white which makes this one elegant plate! Each scene is very detailed with ladies with cherubs flying around in the raised white paste with a blueish background color. Each of these was painted by Albion Birks a student of the famous Marc Louis Solon . Two of the scenes are simply signed AB while one is signed A. Birks. The plate is of a nice size being 10.5 inches in diameter and it is in perfect condition with almost no wear at all and only some very fine and hard to spot crazing in spots typical of these plates. It is marked underneath with impressed Mintons as well as their typical date cyphers but they are hard to make out. I have two other matching plates as well. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
