Don Pottery - Named Italian Views

A lovely blue & white series produced by this old Yorkshire (Swinton) pottery from about 1810 to 1830. Each shape of dinner ware has a different view with the title printed to the bottom of the scene. A very distinctive feature of the border is two flying putti carrying flowers and laurel leaves. Below is a rare soup plate depicting the Tomb of Theron at Aggrigentum. For more details see Premier Antiques
