A rare English delftware miniature salver or tray, dated 1713

Of circular form raised on three bun feet, the centre painted in blue with a bird on a branch within a whorl border, a raised band of zig-zags and dots inside the rim, the underside inscribed 'ANNO 1713, MARIA DAVIDS', 10.8cm diam (minor chips)

Footnotes

The same border occurs on a slightly larger octagonal tray, also with bun feet and dated 1718. See Lipski and Archer, Dated English Delftware (1984), fig.1554. See also fig.274 for a plate dated 1714 with the same unusual use of dots above the numeral 1 used in the date. The form of the capital letter A on this plate is also similar to that seen here.
