Antique Wedgwood & Co ‘Atalanta’ Semi-Porcelain Gravy Boat

A graceful Edwardian table treasure.

This elegant Wedgwood & Co ‘Atalanta’ gravy boat with matching underplate dates to the early 1900s (c.1906+), made in the Staffordshire potteries of England. The Atalanta pattern — named after the swift-footed maiden of Greek mythology — features deep cobalt-blue floral scrollwork against creamy white semi-porcelain, with gently scalloped edges and flowing curves.

Original matching plate included — a rare find, especially in a set.

A beautiful piece for styling, table setting, or simply displaying in a china cabinet, especially with other blue-and-white collections.
