This vitrified plate was fired to a very high temperature, meaning it is non-porous, mostly scratch-resistant, and very durable. Vitreous items absorb less than 3% moisture and stains than some Semi- vitreous pieces.
PATTERN ADDITIONAL INFO:
The Indian Tree is a china oriental pattern, popular during the last half of the nineteenth century, probably replicated from a similar Indian textile pattern. The decoration consists of a crooked branch of a tree with exotic flowers and leaves, and it was one of the most popular designs made by the company. This piece has a Livia Green Greek key border where the rim cross-section starts and a striking floral pattern with blues, greens, and pinks and accented with silver edge trim.
