A striking example of late Victorian “Dickensware,” this ceramic plate features a hand-tinted transfer scene from Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. The central image shows Oliver Twist reacting to the Dodger’s criminal ways, a classic moment captured in fine detail with period-accurate dress and shopfronts. Below the scene is the caption: “Oliver annoyed at the Dodger's mode of ‘Going to Work.’"
Finished with a bold black and green banded border and likely produced by a Staffordshire pottery during the late 19th to early 20th century, these plates were both decorative and educational, illustrating key moral lessons from Dickens' works
Dimensions: Approx. 10 inches in diameter
Condition: Very good – clean glaze, vibrant image, minimal age-related wear
