A matched PAIR of GREEN transfer printed SHRIMP DISHES - deep, shell shaped, handled plates similar to pickle dishes but larger - these measure 9.75" x 9.25" with a 2" high handle.
They are decorated with a "Romantic" center scene of a man & woman in a garden with a river in the background. The border features a variety of flowers scattered in a ring - large daffodils and an occasional rose - with a lovely lacy looking inner band.
Unmarked - circa 1850's
