Pair Antique Staffordshire Red Transferware Plates Adams Grecian Font
Item History & Price
This auction is for a Superb Pair of Antique Red Transferware Pearlware Plates made circa 1830 by Adams of Staffordshire England in a pattern known as “Grecian Font.”
The pattern depicts an elaborate central garden scene with a man and woman standing alongside a large fountain with statues and peacocks nearby and boats on a river in the background and a nautical border design with different shells and vignettes of men waving goodbye to a ship and a scalloped edge.

They Displays Wonderfully and are in Excellent Condition, especially for their age. The glaze and color and images are clear and bright throughout both pieces.
There are no chips or crack or scratches or wear. You would be hard pressed to find other pieces from this era in a finer condition.
Both have an impressed ADAMS mark and a fountain backstamp with the pattern name. Pieces in this pattern are incredible hard to come by.
