The deeply modeled surface is enhanced by the translucent green glaze, which naturally pools within the recessed veins and contours, creating wonderful variations from brilliant emerald and turquoise green to deeper, almost forest-toned areas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe reverse bears an impressed WEDGWOOD mark together with additional impressed and painted factory or pattern markings, including GG4.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduced during the period when English potteries embraced naturalistic botanical forms, these plates are a particularly decorative example of Wedgwood’s majolica tradition. Leaf and vegetable-form ceramics became fashionable for the Victorian table, combining the exuberance of nineteenth-century design with the technical possibilities of richly colored lead glazes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat makes this collection particularly appealing is its scale: 20 matching plates have remained together, allowing them to be used as a dramatic complete service or displayed decoratively across a wall, cabinet, or large dining table. The brilliant green is especially effective against natural woods, linen, and other antique ceramics.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaker: Wedgwood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOrigin: England\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePeriod: 19th century \/ Victorian\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterial: Glazed earthenware \/ majolica\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColor: Emerald green \/ turquoise green\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePattern: Naturalistic molded leaf\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQuantity: Set of 20\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMarks: Impressed WEDGWOOD with additional factory\/pattern marks\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVery good antique condition with age-appropriate variations to the glaze and surface.
