This 9" 1870's Wedgwood month plate is unusual in that it is polychrome rather than monochrome. I have the tiles made by Wedgwood in the 1880's and have seen the plates but have never seen one beautifully painted. I wish I could have seen the whole set of twelve! This plate is "September" and it has the same design as those pieces made later in the 1880's. There is the young woman picking fruit as her dog looks on. The colors are gorgeous and condition is excellent. The marks on the back are very interesting. There is an impressed Wedgwood mark as well as a printed brown mark that says "Old English" and a printed blue mark that says "Mikado". There is also a pattern number in red, "C1423". I just noticed another impressed mark, "HTG". The back is almost as interesting as the front!
