This not typically what one considers "flow blue". It's more of a "Historical type" made both under contract by Staffordshire potteries in England for export to the USA and by domestic American companies.
we have a large collection of flow blue including normandy pieces and it is flow blue but it must be rare. we can.t find any information on value to sell.
I have ONE platter Identical to this set. My center picture is the couple standing looking out to sea. It measures approx 13" x 10". The glaze imperfections have allowed normal discoloration. The gold rim has some wear off or fading from use - specifically at a 5 o'clock position where someone holding it would place their thumb. There is one "nick" or rough spot on the edge at 7 o'clock position which can be felt when trailing your fingernail along the edge. The maker mark is not on the bottom. Transfer ink smudges are on the underside. 3 Kiln stand rough points ( top middle / bottom L & R ) are on the underside I am going to consign this / or list it on live auctions soon. I would be happy to receive any feedback or interest if any wishes to acquire it. Thank you.
