Flight & Barr Worcester Armorial Plate A/F ? Irish C1800 Description This early 19th Century porcelain plate is decorated with a border of Brown and Gilt Grapes & Leaves. In the centre is an Armorial Coat of Arms and motto outlined with a gilt Greek key border. The Armorial is of a Crown, below which is a banner with the motto "DATA FATA SECUNDUS" . In the centre is a Red Hand, with an Eagle to the left and a Harp to the right. I believe the plate was made by Flight and Barr Worcester and think the Armorial refers to an Irish family. The same pattern is illustrated in "Flight & Barr Worcester Porcelain" by Sandon on pages 46 and 50. The Plate has been broken, probably with hot water and repaired with metal staples. There are no chips, the decoration is in good order.

Diss, Norfolk, IP22 1JW, United KingdomEmail: I have had some additional information from a kind Ebayer on who the Armorial refers to. It is not an Irish family, but St Andrew St John, 14th Baron St John of Bletso PC FRS (22 August 1759 – 15 October 1817) who was an English politician who sat in the British House of Commons from 1780 until 1806 when he inherited a peerage.The motto on the plate is SECUTUS (not Secundus) and is usually translated as 'Following My Destiny' (literally: Following the fate given). read more
