This one was clearly made to hold your attention. Meet the \u003cstrong\u003eBurleigh ‘Avon’ wall plate\u003c\/strong\u003e — a mid-century English ironstone charger from Burgess \u0026amp; Leigh of Burslem, Staffordshire, one of the great names in British ceramics. It's been hanging on walls and charming rooms since approximately 1950, and it has absolutely no intention of stopping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe decoration is a hand-applied polychrome floral design featuring loose bouquets of \u003cstrong\u003eblue campanula (bellflower)\u003c\/strong\u003e with green foliage, scattered across a warm cream-white ground. Between the floral clusters, delicate \u003cstrong\u003egold scrollwork and feather motifs\u003c\/strong\u003e add a touch of gilded elegance without overdoing it — because Burleigh knew restraint. The border is a classic \u003cstrong\u003escalloped gadroon rim\u003c\/strong\u003e with a fine gold line, and the body has the satisfying weight and slight translucency of proper Alpine White Ironstone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reverse bears the full \u003cstrong\u003eBurleigh backstamp\u003c\/strong\u003e: \"AVON \/ Burleigh \/ Burgess \u0026amp; Sons \/ England \/ Alpine White \/ Ironstone\" — everything you need to know, printed in brown on white.
