A rare Coalport Porcelain 'Windsor Castle' Plate c.1835 - 1845

A rare Coalport Porcelain 'Windsor Castle' Plate c.1835. The large plate with scalloped rim and dentil border to the rim, decorated in the white with three cartouches of finely tooled and burnished gold loose floral trail in the Sèvres manner, each containing a finely decorated bouquet of flowers. The central well also decorated with a finely executed bouquet of flowers.

A rare retailers mark to the reverse printed in black with the Royal Crown and the words ''Manufact'd by Daniell 129 New Bond St. Windsor Castle'' Daniell.

Daniell was Coalport's principal London retailer porcelain.

Godden notes that this mark appears in the Coalport 'rag' book which includes pulls from engraved copper plates once used by the factory and is in the nature of a record file of Coalport engraved crests and marks. Some rare marks such as this one, bear the place names of Royal palaces or residences, but of course these pieces seldomly come on the market. 

This plate may have been made a sample plate for Windsor Castle as no known service in this pattern exists today. 

Condition: Excellent - Near mint condition!
