I SELL A WIDE RANGE OF QUALITY OCEAN LINER AND 20TH CENTURY DECORATIVE ARTS, SOME ITEMS COME DIRECT FROM MY COLLECTION, WHILST OTHERS ARE RECENT DISCOVERIES AND ARE FRESH TO THE COLLECTORS MARKET. I REGULARLY TRAVEL AROUND THE COUNTRY AND TO THE US, SO IF THERE IS A SPECIFIC ITEM YOU ARE LOOKING FOR PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL. LIKEWISE IF YOU HAVE ITEMS THAT YOU FEEL I MAY BE INTERESTED IN PLEASE CONTACT ME, I DO PURCHASE SINGLE ITEMS TO WHOLE COLLECTIONS. I REGULARLY SELL ITEMS OF FURNITURE AND FIXTURES FROM THE GREAT OCEAN LINERS OF YESTERYEAR, INCLUDING OLYMPIC, MAURETANIA AND THE QUEENS SO PLEASE CHECK MY OTHER LISTINGS. WHITE STAR LINE, 2ND CLASS 9" DINNER PLATE, IN A PATTERN USED ON BOARD THE 'OYLMPIC' & 'TITANIC', KNOWN AS THE 'DELFT' PATTERN, RETAILED BY STONIERS AND PRODUCED BY MINTON, C-1910. THERE'S A DATING SYSTEM TO MINTON, THE STAMPED "4" OR "5" IN A CIRCLE SOMETIMES RELATES TO A DATE CYPHER, IN THIS CASE REPRESENTING 1904 OR 1904, HOWEVER, BOTH THIS AND THE OTHER PLATE I HAVE LISTED TODAY, ARE ALSO STAMPED WITH "12" WHICH COULD ALSO REFER TO THE YEAR 1912. TRANSFER PRINT WITH HAND PAINTED APPLIED DECORATION TO THE FLAG UNDER THE GLAZE. WHEN I PURCHASED THIS PLATE THE CELLULOSE PAINT OF THE FLAG HAD WORN OFF OVER THE YEARS (COMMON ISSUE ON THIS CHINA AS THE INDUSTRIAL DISHWASHER USED ON THE LINERS WOULD OVER TIME REMOVE THE HAND PAINTED SURFACE APPLIED CELLULOSE PAINT, THE PATTERN WAS UNDER THE GLAZE AND SURVIVES) IN THIS EVENT I SENT THE PLATE TO BE RESTORED, AND HAD THE CELLULOSE PAINT REAPPLIED (SEE PICTURES OF BEFORE AND AFTER) THE RED USED ON THIS TYPE OF 2ND CLASS CHINA IS QUITE OFTEN DARKER THAN SAY THE RED FOUND ON THE WISTERIA PATTERN, SO MY RESTORER CAME UP WITH A CLOSE MATCH TO PAINT FOUND ON SIMILAR EXAMPLES IN OUR ARCHIVE, I MENTION ALL THIS FOR TOTAL ACCURACY (SEE PICTURES). SIMILAR EXAMPLES OF THIS PATTERN HAVE BEEN RECOVERED FROM THE TITANIC WRECK SITE. THIS EXAMPLE IN USED BUT OVERALL GOOD CONDITION, SOME CRAZING AS YOU MIGHT EXPECT FOR A PIECE OF CHINA WELL OVER 100 YEARS OLD, BUT OTHERWISE AND EXCEPTIONAL AND RARE SELDOM SEEN PIECE OF WHITE STAR/STEAMSHIP CHINA. NO DAMAGE, NO REPAIRS, NO RESTORATION (OTHER THAN THAT AS MENTIONED ABOVE). 100% ORIGINAL WHITE STAR LINE ARTIFACT, NOT A REPRODUCTION. 9".. Track Page Views With Auctiva's FREE Counter
