THIS WEDGWOOD PLATE IS A SPECIALLY DESIGNED CHRISTMAS PLATE. THE FIRST  TO BE MADE BY AN ENGLISH CERAMIC COMPANY. THIS PLATE WAS MADE ONLY UNTIL 1969 AFTER WHICH THE  ORIGINAL MODEL WAD DESTROYED AND NO FURTHER PLATES WERE MADE. A VIEW OF THE WINSOR CASLTLE IS HAND ORNAMENTED IN WHITE & BLUE COLOURS WITH TREMENDOUS DETAIL.  THESE ARE VERY SOUGHT AFTER COLLECTORS ITEMS  A SEEN BY THE GREAT CRAFTMANSHIP IN THESE QUALITY PIECES.

IN 1759 JOSIAH WEDGWOOD  FOUNDED THE PRESENT FIRM .THE FACTORY  HE BUILT AT ETTURIA IN 1769 WAS REPLACED  IN 1938-1940 BY THE NEW ONE AT BARALASTON.

JUST A LITTLE RESEARCH

THANKS FOR BROWSING
