A large pair of framed Victorian relief moulded pottery plates.
The plates are of circular form, depicting the profile portraits of Lucrezia & Giovanni Borgia.
They are brightly painted and have gilt highlights and blue patterned borders.
The plates are mounted in purpose made ornately pierced cast iron frames.
~ Dimensions ~
The plates have a diameter each of 33cm (13 inches).
The frames have a diameter each of 56cm (22 inches).
Together they weigh 11.39 Kg.
~ Condition ~
The plate of Giovanni has been damaged at some point and repaired but not professionally. It probably will need some work but currently is holding together. It has general wear also but presents reasonably well despite the damage. A piece of the frame has come loose and will need to be reattached.
The plate of Lucrezia is in very good condition with no damage and only some light wear.
The frames of both have general rusting.
