Wedgwood Platter
by: Blake

Dear Paul, The 3 letter group of JOK are the Wedgwood dating system marks used from 1860 to 1885. In your case, the J stands for the month of January, the O is merely a spacer and the K stands for the year 1882.
As for the P & S marks, according to the Encyclopaedia of British Pottery & Porcelain Marks by Godden, the impressed letter P was used in place of the word Pearl after 1868 to denote the piece had a Pearl body. Unfortunately, no mention is made of the S mark.
What you have is a Wedgwood earthenware Pearl body platter made in January of 1882.
I will try to see if I can find the name of the decoration on the platter and will post it if I do. You can also try by running Google image searches or searching on eBay for Wedgwood Platter or Plate and looking for a matching piece with the decoration named in the title or description.

I hope this helps.

Yours, Blake
