  • Set Seven Derby Dishes Hand Painted with Pink Roses Early 19th Century Ca-1815

    $500.00

    These lovely dishes were made in England around 1815.
    They have hand-painted pink roses on bright white Derby porcelain, complemented by green and turquoise leaves.
    During the late 18th and early 19th century, flower painting was a popular style for decorating English porcelain.
    One possible reason for this trend is that porcelain, like a flower, is delicate and color is essential to enhance its beauty.
    Therefore, it serves as an excellent medium to showcase the delicacy and freshness of flower painting.
