Antique Coalport Cobalt Gold Underplate, 8" Hand Painted Plate Grape Leaf c 1815:
$127.93

Just exquisite antique 8" underplate with meticulous hand painted golden grape leaf motif surrounding flower filled cartouches against a cobalt blue background. It is unmarked but I believe it is a piece of early Coalport. Small central medallion feels like an overglaze addition. Indented inner rim indicates this plate was likely used under a bowl or other serving dish.

CONDITION: VERY GOOD
(Poor-->Fair-->Good-->Very Good-->Excellent-->Mint):
No chips, cracks, flea bites or repairs. I'm really not seeing much paint loss here, even to the gilt rim. Very light scratching on the paint, basically invisible without magnification. Light crazing on bottom as well as some blue coloring.

MARKINGS: Unmarked. Coalport pieces were often unmarked until the 1820s.

DECADE: c 1815

MEASUREMENTS: About 7-7/8" diameter

WEIGHT (w/o packaging): 14 oz

I aim to please, and describe every item to the best of my ability. But please note that my vintage items often received frequent use back in their day, so may show visible signs of wear and age. Personally, I wouldn't have it any other way, as I treasure those marks of the past.
