Circa 1800 Chinese Export Green Fitzhugh 9 1/2" Plate with the American Eagle in the center of the plate. The shield in the middle of the eagle has the Faded initials which appears to be A C. I am Guaranteeing 100% this is a Real Green Fitzhugh Plate with the Eagle Decoration dating from 1800. EXCERPTS FROM A ARTICLE: Thomas Fitzhugh was a Director of the British East India Company and spent considerable time in Canton between 1787-1800. It is thought to have been Fitzhugh who ordered a dinner service in the pattern that now bears his name, and dates Circa 1790. The pattern consists of four clusters of flowers and symbols, representing the seasons, surrounding a central motif. This motif could be a circular medallion of various designs, as in this example; It might be a coat of arms or a family crest; it might be a monogram or initials. The border was either similar to the example on this plate--A simple trelis and pendant banding, or it might be a complex design of butterflies, flowers,diaper and Grecian Key. The Earliest Versions, including Fitzhugh's Service from 1790, were decorated in underglaze blue and white. The pattern proved popular, and about C.1800, services were being ordered in overglaze colors, including orange,green,brown,black,rose and yellow. The latter three are Particularly Rare, as are Orange and Green Examples decorated with an American Eagle. The Fitzhugh Pattern continued to be made until the 1840's, although in the later stages the decoration tended to be less finely done. A copy of this article is available upon request.   « Less
