Set of 12 Royal Crown Derby “Red Aves” Fluted Dessert Plates, 8.75”
This elegant set of twelve fluted dessert plates features Royal Crown Derby’s iconic Red Aves pattern, rendered in rich iron red on luminous English bone china. The plates are adorned with finely detailed exotic birds, flowering branches, and scrolling foliage, all framed by a softly undulating, scalloped rim edged in delicate gilt. The fluted form adds movement and refinement, making these plates as striking on display as they are on the table. Perfectly scaled for dessert, luncheon courses, or small salads, they bring a sense of classic English formality with a bold, timeless palette. It is quite rare to find a large set of these fluted plates.
Maker History
Founded in 1750, Royal Crown Derby is one of England’s oldest and most prestigious porcelain manufacturers. Renowned for its exceptional bone china, hand-applied decoration, and rich pattern library, the firm has long been associated with aristocratic and royal patronage. Pieces bearing the Royal Crown Derby mark are celebrated for their craftsmanship, durability, and enduring elegance.
Pattern Overview
The Aves pattern, inspired by 18th-century chinoiserie designs, is one of Royal Crown Derby’s most recognizable and enduring motifs. The Red Aves variation offers a striking monochromatic interpretation, emphasizing intricate linework and dramatic contrast. The pattern balances ornate detail with graphic clarity, making it particularly versatile for both traditional English tables and more layered, collected interiors.
