Re: famille rose ruby back dish

Your dish may be English 18th century porcelain, judging by the glaze ridge next to the inside of its foot rim. Such a ridge would form as a result of a period practice of wiping excess slip from the bottoms of such pieces before firing, which left a slight ring of it to melt and spread out as a low ridge in the kiln. Staffordshire experts call it a "wipe line" or "dry line" I believe. I'm aware from experience that it's diagnostic of Worcester Dr. Wall-period dishes and some kindred wares made circa the mid-18th century, such as the Dr. Wall teapot I used as an example in this earlier thread.

Best regards,

Bill H.
