Antique Mason's Ironstone Oriental Pheasant Pattern Plate c.1912

Description

Antique Mason's Ironstone Oriental Pheasant Pattern Plate c.1912. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
Please see photos for details of condition. There is some crazing that can be seen on one side of the front and also across the back of the plate. This is an expected issue with glass of this age.
This is a 10.5” decorative plate by Mason’s Ironstone with pattern C221, in the “Oriental Pheasant” motif. This is a distinctive antique featuring a popular Mason’s Ironstone Chinoiserie decoration. Variations of this pattern may be seen on other of Mason’s pieces from various time periods.
According to the Replacements.com website this exact plate pattern C221 was discontinued in the late 1800’s.
However, the word “England” was added to the Masons mark after 1891. One guide to Masons marks suggests the C 221 pattern would be made in c1900. I have a 13” platter in the same pattern stamped with an impressed 12 which would indicate 1912 for the piece. These factors influence the estimated date of 1912 listed.
I have 4 10.5” plates, a 13” x 9.25” platter, and 3 small plates 8.25”.

“About Ironstone:
First patented in 1813 by Charles Mason in Stafforshire, England, ironstone is made of porous earthenware, coated with a fired-on glaze that makes it both impermeable to liquids and difficult to break. (It is not made of iron.)
It is heavier than other ceramic wares and often has a bluish tinge. It was initially developed as a frugal alternative to the more expensive porcelain. Americans especially coveted the white ironstone, while the English enjoyed transfer-decorated ironstone.”
