Pearlware Childs Dinner Set Platter KITE FLIER 1825 Staffordshire Miniature Toy

Description: Very Scarce Miniature Historical Childs Dinner Set Platter KITE FLIER attributed to Hackwood Staffordshire England c1825 This miniature dark blue platter or meat plate c 1825 was originally part of an early childs dollhouse dinner service. The tiny oval tray measures 5-1/2 inches long and 4 inches across with an out-turned, scalloped rim and flat bottom. Impeccably potted and finely transfer printed with pearlware glaze in a dark cobalt, sometimes called flow blue. It depicts a scene in a cemetery, with a child flying a kite and another rolling a hoop with a stick, with a dog on the run and an old gentleman standing beside a gravestone. The edge of the plate has a zig-zag feathered border detail. The pattern has been said to possibly represent Ben Franklin, and is known most commonly as "Kite Flyer". It is also referred to as "Crabbed Age and Youth," "Old Age and Careless Youth," and "Gravestone". The image is taken from woodcuts by Thomas Bewick. Like all pieces in this pattern, the piece is unmarked, and the maker is not known with certainty, though it is usually attributed to Hackwood or Rogers (some attribute it to Sewell), all esteemed potteries in the Staffordshire and Tyneside regions of England in the early to mid 1800s. The quality of the form and detailing of the image is far superior to what would be expected on this diminutive sized piece. The plate is in great condition, with no cracks, chips, or repairs. Very clear example. Minor typical manufacturing flaws, blobs, kiln dust and stilt marks. Ponded pearlware glaze adds to the authenticity and charm.This American historical piece in this miniature pocket size work of art, a nice example of the best in children's or dollhouse transferware.
