I'm just now getting round to taking pictures of finds from 3 thrift shopping trips ago. These dishes are quickly helping me to sigh,sob and quit looking. However..not being a quitter..I'm just getting a bit tightly strung....
The only markings stamped down into the back are : England Ironstone English
No other markings that I can see.
It was a good thrifting trip when I found these six little plates that I'm calling Brown Transferware. I loved these sweet little plates, and looked all over for more,
I like ironstone and I like this sweet pattern. There was no more of it to be found,
but all was not lost. I found a baby or mini cloche and a glass cheese dome that can be used as a cloche with a gorgeous plate; two Pyrex bowls, one tiny green casserole and one that has most of the gold color almost removed,. I will show those and the rest of the treasures I found that day.
I surely would appreciate if anyone has a clue about this pattern. Is it transfer ware? I like it,whether it is or not..I would just like to know.
By the way.. I paid 50 cents for each little plate. Now to find more..

Isn't that lovely!
ReplyDeleteIronstone pottery I believe came from Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire, in the early 20th centruy. So called because there will be iron ore in the clay (so don't put them in the microwave!) I remember my granny having some of this pottery but haven't seen any in years. Hope this helps. Ros

Hi CC,
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your win at Shirl's. You will love your little bunny she made. I have one too from her etsy shop and it is darling. I came this way to visit from Shirl's and so glad I did. Your blog is lovely and I have so enjoyed my visit.
I love brown transferware too from England, but I am not sure of the pattern name. You sure got them at a great price. Gorgeous.
So nice to meet you and now I am a happy follower too.
Have a nice week.
Hugs, Celestina Marie
Sounds like lots of great finds. Gorgeous plate.
ReplyDeleteI came here via Brambleberry Cottage and hope you can visit me sometimes over at Pittypat Paperie.
Great plates. I'm like you and really like transferware -- in any of the colors.
