| 📜 Description | Decorative Porcelain armorial style, centered with the Hickes Arms crest in vivid red and gilt, featuring a stag crest above and stylized mantling with floral embellishments. The cavetto is encircled by a refined gilt chain border, while the rim is adorned with delicate hand-painted floral sprays and colorful butterfly motifs. The shaped rim is finished with a continuous gilt edge, enhancing its decorative appeal. The piece shows light age-related crazing and subtle toning to the glaze, consistent with 19th Century production. Collector’s Notes: This plate reflects the European fascination with earlier Chinese Export Armorial Porcelain, recreated during the Victorian period. The addition of butterflies and floral elements gives it a softer decorative character while retaining heraldic significance, making it desirable among collectors of both armorial ware and decorative European porcelain. |
