ABBEY - Livesley Powell

The ABBEY pattern is one of those patterns that has endured the test of time and been used by several companies along the way. George Jones used it for many years and it has its collectors just like the Willow pattern. This 10 sided plate (decahedron) by the firm of Livesley Powell & Co (L.P&Co) is printed in a puce/pink transfer on an Ironstone body and dates from the mid 19th century.

Powell Bishop & Stonier continued to use the Abbey transfer print design and produced this lovely hexagonal platter in a blue & white colourway.
