Some antiques tell a story… this one tells the story of London itself. 🇬🇧💙 Today’s favorite find is this beautiful 12” x 9.5” Wedgwood & Co. Ltd. blue transferware platter, featuring a rare commemorative cartouche for Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese on Fleet Street—one of London’s most famous historic pubs. Rebuilt after the Great Fire of London in 1666, the pub welcomed literary legends like Charles Dickens, Samuel Johnson, Mark Twain, and Arthur Conan Doyle. Imagine the conversations these walls witnessed over the centuries. This isn’t just a classic blue-and-white platter—it’s a piece of English history, combining timeless transferware craftsmanship with one of London’s most iconic landmarks. Finding pieces like this is exactly why I love the treasure hunt. Every antique has a story waiting to be rediscovered. 💙 Circa 1900–1925 📏 12” x 9.5” 🇬🇧 Made by Wedgwood & Co. Ltd., Etruria, England
