Designed by Roy Midwinter","description":"\u003cp\u003eI have had these for many years and just decided to list them.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are a wee random job lot set of dishes in the rare Safari Pattern designed by Roy Midwinter that I have collected over a long period of time as you just dont find them that often. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are exampled in the Victorian and Albert Museum. They are catalogued online as:  \u003cspan\u003eEarthenware with overglaze decoration in enamel, aerographed and printed with 'Safari', designed by Roy Midwinter, David Harper and Julie Midwinter, manufactured by Federated Potteries, England, ca. 1986.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoy Midwinter left the Midwinter Pottery in 1981 and moved to Federated Potteries in Stoke on Trent. Midwinter Pottery was owned by Wedgwood post 1970 and closed in 1987. While at Federated Potteries Roy designed in 1986 this striking pattern. It looks back to geometric patterns of Jessie Tait's Zambesi pattern of the 1950s.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese Safari designs are now quite rare and don't come up for sale very often. The ones that I have have some little scratches etc to some areas of the black stripes. These are only seen in a raking light, so perhaps this pattern was not made in such great numbers due to this happening. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy lot on offer consists of the following 2 Larger Dinner Plates: £20 and one with condition issues £15. One side plate £15. The little milk jug of creamer £25 and two cups and saucers £25 each.
