Richardson \u0026amp; Co. in Staffordshire during the early 20th century. The elaborate border is what makes this piece: graceful blue and ochre scrollwork winds around the platter with stylized leaves, fruit and tiny touches of coral, creating an almost Renaissance-inspired frame around the warm ivory center. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt approximately 12 × 10 inches, it's substantial enough for serving while remaining an easy size to mix into a modern table. Use it for a roast or vegetables at dinner, cheeses or small bites for cocktails, or as a beautiful dessert platter. Or simply display as decor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe platter shows overall glaze crazing consistent with its age, adding to the character of this century-old piece, with no need to disguise its history.
