Large English Pearlware Pottery Blue & White Dog Bowl Boy on a Buffalo

An unusually large example of an early 19th century blue and white pearlware dog bowl printed in the Boy On A Buffalo pattern. A nice quality piece with crisp moulded stepped detailing around both upper and lower rims. The main central panel has the full buffalo scene with moth and cell border. A reduced scale image is printed on the 4 main sides and the upper part of the pattern, that of a pot of bamboo on a mound is printed on the short octagonal sides. There is an underglaze cross mark to the base, likely a workman's mark, no factory mark, but probably Spode, c.1810.
