Soup plateThis transfer-printed earthenware soup plate was made by John Thomson & Sons of Annfield Pottery in Glasgow's Gallowgate. It dates from the second half of the 19th century and was exported to South East Asia. The pattern is called 'NEVA'. The border pattern is of stylized foliage, forming a complicated flame-like pattern against a background of pink shading to red towards the edge. The centre shows a circle of similar foliage on a red and pink background. This plate is one in an extensive collection of Scottish plates found in the bazaars and markets of Java, Sumatra and Borneo, areas for which they were undoubtedly produced.
