English Blue Transferware Armorial plate for the Worshipful Company of Salters, Circa 1825

This is a circa 1820-30 blue transferware plate decorated with the Worshipful Company of Salters armorial.

Produced by Hicks, Meigh & Johnson, this blue transferware plate is decorated to the centre with the armorial crest for the Worshipful Company of Salters, which is one of the Livery Companies of the City of London. The Company was formed as the Guild of Corpus Christi and was granted a Royal Charter of incorporation in 1394. Further Charters granted the Company the authority to set standards and regulations regarding the products of its members. Originally, the Salters' Company included individuals who were involved in using salts and the preparation of chemical mixtures for use in food. The Company's motto is 'Sal Sapit Omnia', Latin for 'Salt Savours All'.

The plate is stamped to the rear with 'Du Croz', 'Skinner Street London' a crest incorporating a lion and unicorn and underneath 'Stone China', '51'.

The approximate size is 265mm (10.5") diameter.

It is in excellent condition for its age. Some age related wear as would be expected. Please see photographs for detailed condition.
