Coalport Tiffany & Co. Turquoise Porcelain Dessert Plate
This is a fine bone china dessert or cabinet plate, likely manufactured by Coalport for retailer Tiffany & Co. during the late 19th to early 20th century. The plate features a scalloped edge highlighted by heavy gilded scrolling. The primary decorative scheme consists of a vivid turquoise blue (often referred to as 'Sèvres green' or 'petit bleu') ground. This ground is interrupted by four large lobed cartouches featuring intricate gold-gilded floral sprays and four smaller urn-shaped panels with delicate foliate designs. The center of the plate features a white circular medallion containing a complex gold filigree sunburst or star-shaped motif. The craftsmanship displays high-quality gilding techniques, including raised or acid-etched gold work. Physically, the plate appears to be approximately 8 to 9 inches in diameter with a smooth, glazed finish. The condition appears excellent with minimal visible wear to the gilding, no apparent cracks, or chips visible from the top view. The style is highly characteristic of the Rococo Revival, popular in Victorian and Edwardian high-society tableware.
