(Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, England). 🏷️ Pattern: "Du Barry" , An iconic, all-over floral chintz featuring a dense tapestry of pink, yellow, and violet blossoms. 🌸 Period: Circa 1940s. ⏳ Material: Fine English Earthenware / China. ☕ What’s Included 📦 Square Handled Divided Dish: A unique, "sweet meat" or bon-bon dish with a central divider and two elegantly molded handles. 🍬 Scalloped Serving Bowl: A deep, circular bowl with a beautifully ruffled edge that highlights the intricate floral pattern. 🥣 Pattern & Color Palette 🎨 Visual Condition: The actual floral pattern is in great shape on both items, remaining vibrant and clear with no fading or decoration loss to the top-facing surfaces. ✅ Tonal Variation: Please note that as is common with authentic vintage sets, there is a subtle tonal variation between the two pieces. The bowl possesses a slightly deeper, more saturated warmth in its color palette compared to the dish. When displayed together, this adds to the unique, curated character of the set. 🎨 Condition Report 📝 These pieces are in lovely vintage condition and display beautifully. 💖 Gold Trim: There is only slight wear to the gold trim on the edges of both items; the gilding remains in good shape and still provides a beautiful, bright frame for the floral pattern. ✨ Crazing: Both items show signs of crazing (fine hairline cracks in the glaze) specifically on the underside. This is a natural aging process for English earthenware of this era and is not visible when the items are on display. 🕰️ Structural Integrity: No chips, cracks, or repairs to the main bodies of either piece. 👍
