This is a matching set of six highly collectible Portmeirion side plates.
They are more of a shallow dish than a flat plate - as the rim area is raised from the centre. Each plate is 7 1/2 inches in diameter. The weight of all six plates is 1.5 kg
The design was by Susan Williams Ellis - and was only made for a short period from 1966 until 1970. They are all marked on the reverse.
Each plate is in good vintage condition - with no chips or cracks. The top of each plate is in good blemish-free condition - but there is very light craquelure on the back of a couple of plates (as photographed in extreme close-up).
