Wedgwood Majolica Heron Plate - Joseph Théodore Deck – England, c. August 1871
A fine nineteenth-century Wedgwood majolica plate, produced in England circa August 1871, featuring a striking heron motif. The plate is designed with a pierced rim simulating basketweave, a highly decorative and technically accomplished feature characteristic of quality Victorian majolica.
