RD 84747
Marked with registered design number 84747 (registered to Sowerby on 21 October 1887).

A plate which has a central area with the Manx triskelion (‘The Three Legs’) with a part- beaded ring bearing the legend ‘A PRESENT FROM THE ISLE OF MAN’, itself bordered by another narrow beaded ring, then an outer scalloped border with a pattern of leaves and small clusters of some kind of fruit (interrupted by a clear panel etched with the name ELLEN ANN).

Jenny Thompson gives a design description as ‘pattern of butter (vine pattern’), so that probably refers to the decoration of the outer border, though a tankard from the same RD number is decorated with what are undoubtedly ivy leaves and berries, and a Robert Burns commemorative plate RD 84747 has a border of leaves and thistle heads.
