Oval dish or under plate for a sauce pitcher or gravy boat, antique English ironstone, white china with embossed wheat pattern. This is marked Ceres Shape - E Pearson - Cobridge, and measures 8 1 2" long.
At well over 100 years old, it's chipped, worn, and discolored. But the shape is lovely, and I think that the browning just adds a little patina to its charm!
