Vintage Spode Gamebird “Grouse” Dinner Plate – Upland Series with chip on back

This striking vintage Spode gamebird dinner plate features a beautifully detailed full-color illustration of a grouse, part of the sought-after Upland Series, Number 11. The central artwork is framed by an ornate cobalt blue border, giving the plate a classic English country sporting aesthetic.

Measuring approximately 10½ inches in diameter, this plate makes an excellent display or wall piece for a hunting lodge, cabin, or traditional home décor. While there is a large chip on the back rim, it is not visible from the front when displayed and does not detract from the artwork. There is no other damage noted. Please refer to the photos provided for a clear view of the chip.

Due to the condition, this plate is best suited for decorative display rather than use.
