This listing is for very decorative Victorian plate made between 1885 and 1889 by the F. W. Grove pottery in Staffordshire, England during the height of the Aesthetic Movement. The pattern is “Pomegranite” and consists of wonderful images of a storybook of children playing in the sea, a Japanese fan with koi fish, a sailboat, a woodland scene and a branch with pomegranates. The back is stamped Pomegranite FWG and registration number 24209. This means it was registered in 1885. There is crazing, discoloration, tiny chips in the glaze and two old cracks in this rare 137 year old plate but is still very special. Please see the photos. The plate measures 10 ½” in diameter.

I test what I can and let you know what I did. In the case of electronics, I’m not a technician, I test it and describe it the best I can. If you want me to try a specific function, let me know.
If you know more about the item, I’m happy to update my listing, most of the time I find similar items to help me with my listing and pricing.
The shipping is based on the estimated weight and box size. calculates it not me.
Mailing, I mail as quick as possible to get it to you, if it’s over $100, I purchase signature confirmation and insurance. I also make sure and get a drop off receipt that the carrier has it in their possession. It may take time to register in the tracker though.
If under $100, I may drop it in the carrier’s bin or counter and they scan it in later. So tracking info may be delayed. If you want something signature confirmed, let me know and I will add that to your total. It’s a couple dollars more.
In transit- once I drop it off, it really out of my control. Holidays, expect delays. I’m happy to discuss any concerns.
If local pick up, we will most likely meet at a local spot that is convenient. If you want it shipped at your expense, I can help arrange. For example freight .
If you have any issues, let me know, I’m willing to work with you. If you don’t read descriptions or don’t review photos, it makes it harder to come to a solution.
