Large Victorian Majolica 'Raspberry' Oval Serving Dish c1880

A superb majolica twin handled shallow dish embossed with raspberry leaves and fruits. Rare to find and nicely painted in strong greens and pinks with a fine mottled centre; an exceptional piece in great condition, with only some minor flaking to the yellow ochre edge in places (though nothing serious or very noticeable). No chips, cracks or restoration. Width 29.2cm (11.5in)
