Six Oval Bowls","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a part of a selection of rarer 1950s British tablewares that I am listing. Postal discounts would of course apply for multiple purchases. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn offer here is a rare and pretty little set of six matching oval bowls. There were made by Johnson Brothers, as you can see on the lovely back stamp on the base. The pattern name is Autumn Leaves\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJohnson Brothers were probably looking at similar designs made by Eric Ravilious and issued by Wedgwood as their \"Garden\" series. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis design features a spindly tree that is dropping its leaves in the autumn. The leaves flutter through the air. The colours used by Johnson Brothers are also very reminiscent of the Ravilious palette on the Wedgwood designs. These ones would have been a more affordable alternative and would have been had at a fraction of a Ravilious original. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese Autumn Leaves ceramics probably date to the mid-1950s. They are now 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a pretty set of six matching larger sized oval bowls. They are perfect for ice cream or fruit salads. They measure 7 1\/4 x 6 3\/4 inches and are 1 3\/4 inches in height. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey weigh 1.7 kg in weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI am pricing these at just over £18 for each individual bowl - as they are so rare and extremely hard to find. This is a fair price for such an iconic 50s design and a fraction of what you might pay for a Ravilious alternative. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI have another set of five slightly smaller ones also available in my store. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll are in fine vintage condition with no chips or cracks. There are no disfiguring cutlery marks on the pattern or surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocation Code C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePostage will be with Royal Mail Tracked, Medium Parcel. This will be applied to your order at the checkout. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39441900240960,"sku":"","price":110.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/1950s-johnson-brothers-autumn-leaves-pattern-six-oval-bowls-british-ceramics-897.webp?v=1794029407","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/1950s-johnson-brothers-autumn-leaves-pattern-six-oval-bowls","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
