Antique mid-19th-century blue transferware pottery - Cork & Edge England. This platter, with maker's mark "Verona" and initials CE&M correspond to Staffordshire pottery firm Cork & Edge (operating around 1846-1860 in England).
The central scene depicts a classical, idyllic Italian landscape featuring two figures in a terrace garden setting against a backdrop of sweeping palm trees, architectural domes, and a distant hilltop fortress.
The rim is beautiful framed by alternating intricate cartouches containing miniature landscapes and lush floral scrollwork, separated by a delicate geometric latticework pattern.This beautiful platter is in excellent condition, especially for its age.
Wash by hand with mild soap to preserve it.
