A Beautiful Vintage 1st Quality Royal Crown Derby Dessert Plate

*Paradise Cobalt-Blue* A. 1290 pattern

*Queen's Gadroon* shape

Showcasing design excellence. The classic 'Aves' pattern, adapted from an embroidery by Sybil Francis (a Royal Crown Derby employee and business partner of Cuthbert Gresley) in 1932, has appeared on Royal Crown Derby's luxury tableware since that time and is used here with the pattern being in gold monochrome on a cobalt-blue ground. The border is further enhanced with hand decoration in 22 carat gold.

Condition: In overall excellent vintage condition. There are no chips, cracks or restorations. The gilding is in very good condition. There is just a very small area around the rim where the gilt is missing - which cannot be seen face-on (this appears to be from manufacture and is not a chip). The gold monochrome pattern and cobalt-blue ground are in excellent vintage condition.

Individually hand-crafted in England of fine bone china
A 1st quality piece with full Royal Crown Derby printed backstamp, date mark 'XLIII' (1980), imprinted numbers and workers marks

Care Instructions

How to Care for your Fine Bone China

You would be forgiven for believing that fine bone china should be treated with the most delicate of touches, and of course - it should, however fine bone china is actually one of the most durable materials to be used for tableware. It is not as fragile as you may think! Read on to find out how to care for your beautiful fine bone china.

Usage

Fine bone china must not be subject to extreme changes in temperature - or exposed to a naked flame.

Plates and serving dishes can be warmed before use in an oven or hostess trolley at a temperature of no more than 100 degrees centigrade.

Items with a gold or platinum trim must not be used in a microwave.

Fine bone china should not be used for cooking purposes.

Fine bone china is suitable for use both in the freezer and oven (for warming only - see above).

Washing

Fine bone china is suitable for washing in a dishwasher - at a maximum temperature of 65 degrees centigrade.

When washing by hand - avoid scouring pads and abrasive washing detergents which could remove the pattern.

Most stains or hardened-on particles can be removed by soaking the item in warm water before washing.

Really stubborn stains can be removed by soaking in a mild bleach solution for up to one hour.

Storage

When storing or stacking plates, try not to slide them over one another as this may cause scratches in the glaze.

We recommend that a paper napkin is placed between each plate.

Cups should be stored or hung from a cup hook (not stacked - as this weakens the handles).

In hard water areas, deposits may form on your tableware in time if the water is allowed to dry on the tableware. These soluble deposits can easily be removed with a dilute acid such as vinegar.
