Plate with armorial design c. 1802

This porcelain plate, created by the Worcester Porcelain Works, features a central armorial design with a knight kneeling in a circle surrounded by a diamond pattern. The rim is decorated with an elaborate gold and pink floral design and the plate would have been part of a larger set, likely used for dining. This plate is an example of the high quality and artistic skill of the Worcester Porcelain Works, a major producer of English porcelain in the 18th and 19th centuries.
