Antique English Blue Willow Transfer Ware Lidded Serving Dish

Add timeless charm to your table or collection with this exquisite Antique English Blue Willow Transfer Ware Lidded Serving Dish made by Ridgways. Founded in 1866 by Edward John Ridgway in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, England. This elegant piece features the iconic Blue Willow pattern—an enduring favorite among collectors and lovers of classic design. Expertly detailed in deep cobalt blue on creamy white porcelain, the design showcases the romantic chinoiserie-inspired scene of pagodas, bridges, and willow trees that has captivated imaginations for generations.

The matching lid is topped with a gracefully molded finial and fits snugly, making it both functional and decorative. Not perfect, the bowl does have an under rim chip {from that time that aunt Cerise tried to serve herself instead of waiting for the footman to serve her!} as shown. Please only adopt this beauty if you can love her as is. Whether used for serving at special gatherings or displayed as a striking centerpiece, this stunner is a beautiful example of traditional English transfer-ware. Bring a touch of antique elegance to your dining or display with this timeless Blue Willow treasure.
