White Transferware
Date Transferware plate ...?
I know a little about transferware plates and know their history. I recently went and found a blue antique white transferware plate and just "England" stamped on the back of blue and nothing else. It also seems a mark on the left same, or maybe just a point ink. It is a scene of a theater in the East River and is mainly white inside. Does anyone have any idea of the date of this dish? Thank you!
Yes, the word "England" is the key. This word was added to export products to the United States because of the Customs Act, 1891 McKinley. Pieces made before 1891, led to a shape (like a diamond, or sphere, etc., to indicate the date), and 19 in the middle of the century, was placed registration numbers. However, "England" appears only in transferware pieces made between 1891 and 1903 and exported to the United States. After 1903, the words "Made in England" appeared.
