Vintage Calyx Ware Micratex 2087 Square Dish - Adams

Great looking pale blue and pink square Calyx Ware/Micratex ironstone dish by Adams. The floral pattern, "Lowestoft", is handpainted as is the orange line around the edge. The stamps and trade names indicate it's from between 1963 & 1966 but it looks much newer.  There are a couple of firing faults in the surface and the transfers aren't aligned brilliantly so it's probably a second although visually it's very good and there are very few surface marks.

Vintage Old Curiosity Shop Bon Bon Dish - Adams

SOLD

Small two-handled bon bon dish by Adams. It's from the Dickens series of around the 1920s and features a scene from "The Old Curiosity Shop" with Dick Swiveller and the Marchioness and on the base, the quote, "Them, Marchioness," said Mr. Swiveller, "fire away!"  Generally in very good condition although crazed. There is a dark patch on the edge of the right handle that looks like a stain but there is no other damage apart from the crazing. Still a nice looking piece and, I would imagine, fairly rare - this is the only example I have found online.
