It is decorated in the factory's signature 'Blue Fluted' (Pattern No. 1) design, featuring intricate, hand-painted floral motifs in a rich cobalt blue underglaze. An original gilded edge finishes the scalloped rim, adding a refined detail typical of custom-order pieces from this period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe backstamp on the underside carries the three blue wavy lines (without a crown) and the painter's numeral '15'. According to factory records, this specific mark reliably dates the manufacture of this dish to between 1870 and 1890.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eBlue Fluted is considered Royal Copenhagen's most historic collection, first introduced in 1775. Because each dish is painted entirely by hand, the floral sprays vary slightly from piece to piece. The survival of such an early, First Quality example with intact gilding makes this a notable addition to any porcelain collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 18px; margin-top: 30px; border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc; padding-bottom: 5px;\"\u003eItem Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 15px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f9f9f9; border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; width: 40%;\"\u003eMaker \u0026amp; Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eRoyal Copenhagen (Denmark)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003ePattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eBlue Fluted (Pattern 1)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f9f9f9; border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eEstimated Era\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e1870 - 1890\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eQuality Marker\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eFirst Quality\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 20px; margin-top: 30px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1; min-width: 250px; background: #fafafa; border: 1px solid #eee; border-left: 4px solid #f39c12; padding: 15px;\"\u003e\n        \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCondition Assessment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n        \u003cul style=\"font-size: 15px; padding-left: 20px; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eThis piece is in excellent antique condition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eThere are no chips, cracks, crazing, or repairs to be found.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eThe gilded trim shows minor but authentic age-related wear consistent with 19th-century production.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eThe underside base has typical shelf wear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003ePlease inspect the images closely, as they accurately represent the condition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1; min-width: 250px; background: #fafafa; border: 1px solid #eee; border-left: 4px solid #2ecc71; padding: 15px;\"\u003e\n        \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px; margin-top: 0;\"\u003ePackaging \u0026amp; Dispatch\u003c\/h3\u003e\n        \u003cul style=\"font-size: 15px; padding-left: 20px; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eSecurely packed using protective materials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eFast 1-2 day dispatch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree UK Delivery.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree 30-Day Returns\u003c\/strong\u003e included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eFully tracked international shipping via eBay GSP.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Royal Copenhagen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52746350035291,"sku":null,"price":773.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/4986\/3003\/files\/57_afdd55e4-743c-4910-8309-3b66f1bfd311.png?v=1775225203","url":"https:\/\/gifteduk.com\/products\/1870s-royal-copenhagen-blue-fluted-leaf-candy-dish-gold-edge-antique-1st-quality","provider":"Gifted UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
