Wedgwood 'Edme' Scalloped Edge Plate

This item is a white ceramic or porcelain plate, presented from its underside. The plate features a distinctive scalloped or fluted edge, adding a decorative and classic aesthetic. The material appears to be high-quality earthenware or fine china, possibly bone china given the subtle translucence suggested by some light reflections. The primary color is a soft, creamy white, with some areas exhibiting a faint iridescent or pearlescent sheen, particularly on the scalloped rim, which could be part of the glaze or an effect of lighting. The back of the plate features a raised foot rim, which helps to elevate the plate slightly and prevent scratching of the surface it rests on. In the center of the underside, there is a visible manufacturer's mark. This mark is predominantly gold or gilded, and appears to feature a stylized urn or vase motif, above text that is partially legible but clearly includes 'WEDGWOOD' and likely 'E. COLAND' (possibly 'B. ENGLAND' or 'B. ENGLAND'). This mark is characteristic of Wedgwood, a renowned British pottery company, and specifically suggests their 'Edme' pattern, which is known for its classical fluted design. There is a small, distinct blue dot or mark near the foot rim, which could be an incidental manufacturing imperfection, a residue, or a decorator’s mark. The overall condition appears good with no obvious chips, cracks, or significant wear visible from this angle, though more detailed inspection would be needed to confirm this. The craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced, high-quality tableware item, likely from the 20th century, given the style and known history of Wedgwood's 'Edme' line.
