Lot 520
A Moorcroft pottery circular plum patterned plate, the reverse impressed Moorcroft, having a Moorcroft signature and with paper label 9" £75-125 ILLUSTRATED

This pattern is actually the Pomegranate design. The dish itself is in good order. There is a slight hairline crack running down the outside of the dish, which culminates in a small piece of glaze missing. Other than that there are no other cracks or chips. There is crazing to the dish and it does need a good clean. To the underside, the dish is stamped Moorcroft only, there is no Burslem impressed mark or the later Made in England mark. The dish is signed in green and there is the remainder of the Moorcroft paper label.
