A stunning example of English craftsmanship, this rare antique Blue Willow platter by J. Jackson & Co. dates to the late 19th century (1870-1887) and brings a sense of heritage and storytelling to your table or display. Made in Staffordshire, England — the heart of British ceramics — this piece features the beloved Blue Willow pattern, a design that has charmed collectors for centuries.

The Blue Willow motif is more than just decoration; it tells a tale of star-crossed lovers set against a dreamy chinoiserie landscape. Featuring pagodas, willow trees, a charming bridge, and two doves in flight, the scene evokes romance and folklore while embodying the refined beauty of English transferware.

J. Jackson & Co. was an esteemed Staffordshire pottery only active in the late 1800s, known for their high-quality transferware and iconic patterns. Their wares are cherished today for their fine detailing, rich cobalt blue palette, and timeless appeal.

This platter is a lovely size, perfect for entertaining or as a striking decorative accent in a dining room, kitchen, or display cabinet. The natural crazing and patina speak to its age and authenticity, adding to its charm and collectability.
