This is a part of a selection of rarer 1950s British tablewares that I am listing. Postal discounts would of course apply for multiple purchases.
On offer here is a rare and really hard-to-source matching set of six dessert plates. There were made by Crown Ducal - as you can see on the lovely back stamp on the base. The pattern name is Arizona - this is a very rare and popular mid-century design - probably one for the more specialist collector of 50s tablewares. A have a few different pieces in my store.
This design is totally wonderful - one of my favourites.
It is a design called Arizona and it looks at a garden or patio in Arizona. near the Mexican border. The pattern features a green table with spindly legs and is covered above with a red and black striped canopy. The table is in a desert garden - and it features a selection of succulent plants and cacti in pots that are randomly arranged in the design. The little plants with round leaves or berries are very atomic in form - and totally suited to 50s design. The pattern is repeated on all other pieces in the range.
They are certainly rarer survivors and not so many dinnerware pieces with this pattern seem to have survived. The rarity of these, the attractiveness of the design, and the fact that these are now over 60 years old and in generally good vintage condition are reflected in my asking price.
Please check the details in all my images in close-up. I have taken a photograph of the design on the front of each plate here.
This is a set of six matching dessert plates. They measure 9 inches in diameter. Unpacked the set is 2.3 kilograms in weight. So going to be a little more expensive to post (all parcels are charged by the weight).
They are in pretty good vintage condition with no chips or cracks. There are no disfiguring cutlery marks on the pattern or surface. - but there is some minor rubbing to the images- especially the canopy section. Please look at my photographs of the complete six plates in close up to assess condition of each.
They are priced at only £20 for each plate. They would look fabulous on display on your wall or on display in a conservatory or garden room.
