Johnson Brothers Indies Blue Gravy Boat | Blue & White Ironstone Transferware | Made in England

Johnson Brothers Indies Blue Gravy Boat, English Ironstone This gravy boat is in Johnson Brothers' Indies Blue pattern, a blue-and-white transferware design with an Asian-inspired look. The swirled body is decorated with large blue blossoms, curling vines, leafy sprays, and a small bird on a branch, framed by a geometric diamond border along the scalloped rim. It has a generous pouring spout, a scrolled loop handle with a small floral accent, and a short oval foot. It's a lovely replacement piece for an Indies collection and will look beautiful on a Thanksgiving or holiday table. It's also great for gravy, sauces, or syrup, or as a pretty vase for a few cut flowers. Indies Blue was produced from 1974 to 2009 and remains one of Johnson Brothers' most popular blue patterns.
