Large Late 19th Century Furnivals Pottery Meat Platter - People's Refreshment Hs

A lovely large white glazed meat platter, made by the Furnivals pottery for "The People's Refreshment House Association" or PRHA, a temperance society rewarding Public Houses for providing alternatives to alcohol, with a blue transfer printed PRHA motif and central moulded "gravy tree". The platter came from a local Pub on the River Dart!! In all a really useful platter with a distinct talking point, just right for you Christmas Turkey to get the guests talking!!! It measures 20" x 16". It is marked to the base with an impressed backstamp (see photos) and dated '82 for 1882. It is in good overall condition with no damage or restoration.
