Step into a legacy of British artistry and heritage with this magnificent Royal Doulton Burslem “Madras” pattern charger plate. Royal Doulton, a name synonymous with timeless elegance and exceptional craftsmanship, created this piece during a golden era of Victorian design. The breathtaking imagery on the plate—a serene oriental pavilion surrounded by lush trees and intricate architecture—captures the Victorian fascination with exotic cultures, a reflection of the global influence and artistic aspirations of 19th-century Britain.
The floral border, adorned with vibrant yellows, oranges, and greens, represents the mastery of Royal Doulton’s artisans, whose designs have graced the tables of royalty and collectors for generations. Each motif tells a story: the East-meets-West aesthetic in the central scene symbolises the openness and curiosity of the Victorian age. The Royal Doulton mark on the reverse side is more than a stamp—it’s a hallmark of authenticity, quality, and prestige, revered by collectors worldwide.
This charger plate is more than a decorative piece; it is a tangible link to history, embodying the Victorian ideals of refinement and grandeur. Whether displayed proudly in your collection or used as a centerpiece for special occasions, this plate preserves the heritage of Royal Doulton and the cultural narratives of a bygone era. Its weight and craftsmanship evoke a time when such items were not only functional but a statement of status and artistry.
