Poole Pottery Transfer Plate, Barbara Furstenhofer, Frog Prince (150) (Minor Scratching to edge)

Poole Pottery Transfer Plate, Barbara Furstenhofer, Frog Prince (150)

This transfer plate depicting The Frog Prince  is one of a series of Poole Pottery transfer plates that were based on paintings by Barbara Furstenhofer of children's nursery story characters.The rich colours and imaginative designs have made this a very collectable series of plates. This plate has a diameter of approximately six inches. The reverse of this plate is clearly marked with the Poole Pottery logo and also marked "150 Frog Prince".The plate is generally in very good condition, but on carful examination it does have some minute scratch marks on the edge, consistant with it being displayed using a spring tensioned hanger. We have reduced the price to reflect these minor blemishes.

Poole Pottery produced most of its transfer plates from open stock patterns in the 1980's and 1990's. Poole do not seem to have kept a comprehensive list of the patterns that they produced, so the many collectors of these transfer plates are constantly on the lookout for additional plates to add to their collections. Prices are now rising steadily, so make sure that you add to your collection before new aquisitions become too expensive.
