    Looks like it might be blue Staffordshire transferware. Hard to tell much more without a mark.

    Owned can probably answer that question better than me. Owned and others helped educate me in what to look for. I recognized the general style: like the color, the border, the nature of the center scene, the rim pattern, the shape, the bottom treatment. I also noticed right away it wasn't hand painted. As far as I could tell everything added up to Staffordshire. You develop a bit of eye once you see it often enough.

    Yup i also think its transferware. Did you see the patterns are not even at the edge of the plate and some sort of double picture has placed upon the outer layer of the plate.

    Recognition? I think basically, having seen so much of it! Don is spot on with the identifiers: foot rim, design - which is very typical of early Victorian - , the clay colour, even the discolouration. I do like the fact that the transfer has been screwed up a bit. It speaks to the hand done nature of it.

    Sounds like a large porridge or soup bowl to me. Too small for fruit.

    Really did they have soup for that large. it could kind of feed the whole family i guess. hehe. By the way were fruit bowl larger than that too?

    Porridge certainly was served in a large bowl. Fruit was usually on large platters or footed comports/tazzas.
