Side plate c. 1800

This is a side plate from a set of Wedgwood earthenware, produced around 1800. The plate, like the rest of the set, features a simple, elegant design with green leaves and tendrils painted on a white background. The plate's scalloped edge adds a touch of decorative detail to the piece. Wedgwood, founded by Josiah Wedgwood in the late 18th century, became a prominent English manufacturer known for its innovative and high-quality ceramics. These plates are a fine example of Wedgwood's artistry and enduring influence on the world of ceramics.
