The Collection of Mario Buatta a Group of Chinese & English Tobacco Leaf Plates
$6,800.00Provenance: The Private Collection of Mario Buatta
A group of 8 Tobacco Leaf pattern dishes.
Mario loved unexpected colors and well-painted flowers on porcelain. The Tobacco Leaf pattern has beautiful flowers in fabulous color combinations. The decoration features lobed leaves and hibiscus flowers. It was inspired by the flowering Nicotiana (Tobacco) plant and by patterns used on Indian and Chinese textiles and from the 17th and 18th-century.
The pattern was developed in China circa 1770. Of all the 18th-century Chinese export porcelain patterns, this was and still is the most highly prized.
English porcelain and pottery factories inspired by Chinese export porcelains created their own Tobacco Leaf patterns.
We are proud to offer these eight “Tobacco Leaf” pattern plates in three variations. The four Chinese dishes have the original Chinese design. , They were made in the Qianlong period of the Qing dynasty, circa 1770.
Also in this group are a pair of large Masons Ironstone plates dating to 1820 and a pair of Barr, Flight, Barr Worcester Porcelain plates made circa 1820.
TheĀ Barr, Flight, Barr Worcester “Tobacco Leaf” pattern is one of the most prized of all the Worcester patterns.
The Barr, Flight, Barr plates have the BFB impressed crown mark and a red painted number, which seem to be a museum catalog number.
The Mason’s plates have the company’s printed mark on the reverse.
The four porcelain Chinese export plates are, in typical fashion, not marked. -

The Swansea factory in Wales provided some of the very finest botanicals painted on dishes.
The designs for these dishes were taken from Curtis’s Botanical Magazine begun in 1787.
On the back of the dish is the name of the flower inscribed in iron red.
Each dish is named on the back in underglaze red:

Wedgwood Antique Creamware Dinner Service with Gilded Chevrons England ca. 1820
$22,400.00This large and extensive Wedgwood creamware dinner service is decorated with a border featuring gold chevrons set between two enameled blue lines.
The creamware body has a warm look. The elegant gold chevron decoration along the borders creates a formal feeling. The combination of the soft creamware and the geometric ornament along the border is beautiful.
In this extensive service are two elegant soup tureens. They have knobs rising from painted leaves decorated with gilt and blue enamel.Ā These tureens are described in the 1790 Wedgwood catalog found in the Wedgwood Museum as “pearl-glazed Queensware soup tureen and stand shape # 3”. Josiah Wedgwood’s creamware gained recognition when King George III and his consort, Queen Charlotte decided to favor local artisans to boost the countryās economy. A tea set was presented to the palace in the last quarter of 1765. Wedgwood then renamed his creamware pottery “Queensware”. In the late 18th and early 19th century Wedgwood Queensware was the first English pottery which for elegance and perfection of potting could compete successfully with the porcelain production of the European continent.
Condition: Excellent.
