Condition

The ceramic is sound. There is fine crazing to the glaze in the white ground. The slip has been unevenly applied in places resulting in a handful of scattered matt areas in the white ground, as visible in the illustration. These appear to be inherent in the work. There is minor rubbing to the underside adn the edges. The plate is in overall very good condition.
