Add timeless English charm to your collection with this vintage Wedgwood Enoch Woodland transferware plate, featuring a beautifully detailed pastoral countryside scene framed by floral borders. Made in England and marked “Woodland – Enoch Wedgwood (Tunstall) Ltd – Founded in 1835”, this ironstone plate is decorated with durable underglaze red transfer printing, acid and detergent resistant. Measuring approximately 10 inches, it is perfect for display, serving, or as a collector’s piece of fine English transferware.
The Woodland pattern by Enoch Wedgwood (Tunstall) Ltd is a fine example of mid-20th century English transferware, continuing the long tradition of Staffordshire potteries producing decorative ironstone for both domestic use and export. Established in 1835, the Wedgwood family potteries (separate from Josiah Wedgwood & Sons) became well known for durable earthenware and ironstone pieces that were both functional and beautifully decorated.
The Woodland design features a rustic English countryside vignette — complete with trees, cottages, and rural life — encircled by a bold floral border. Produced with underglaze transfer printing, these plates were made to be both acid- and detergent-resistant, ensuring their practicality while retaining their beauty.
Collectors prize these plates for their historic connection to Staffordshire craftsmanship, their nostalgic rural imagery, and their versatility in both traditional and modern interiors. Today, Woodland plates are sought after for wall displays, farmhouse-style kitchens, and as part of curated collections of red transferware, which remains one of the most collectible colorways.
