Poole Pottery Transfer Plate, Riverside Blue (5)

Poole Pottery Transfer Plate, Riverside Blue (5)

This Poole Pottery Transfer plate is from a series of plates produced by Poole Pottery. We do not know if the series was given any specific name and do not know who the original artist was. The plates, all depicted in blue, and show a series of waterside scenes and are extremely attractive. The back stamp (see second photo) merely shows the standard "Pool e England" marking with the dolphin. We have numbered the plates from 1 to 6 for the purpose of ease of identification, but this is merely our numbering system and we are unaware of any numbers allocated by Poole Pottery. This is number "5".

This plate is very in good condition and has a diameter of approximately six inches. The reverse of this plate is not stamped.

Poole Pottery produced most of its transfer plates from open stock patterns in the 1980's and 1990's. Poole do not seem to have kept a comprehensive list of the patterns that they produced, so the many collectors of these transfer plates are constantly on the lookout for additional plates to add to their collections. Prices are now rising steadily, so make sure that you add to your collection before new aquisitions become too expensive.
