  • Condition: This plate is in great condition for its age. There is crazing, especially at the outer edges of the inside of the bowl. There is a dark line about 1/4" long, just to the right of the center decal, about even with the old lady's hat, that was caused by some foreign object in the glaze when it was glazed. The decal does show some wear consistent with the age of the item which I date from the late nineteen-teens or early 1920s. The last photo shows a relatively large whitish area that did not get covered in glaze. I believe this plate was dipped rather than brushed as you can also see the drip marks in the glaze as this is the type of translucent glaze that gets darker where it is thicker. Be sure and check the photos carefully as they are an integral part of the description and do a better job of actually showing condition issues than what I can explain through the use of the written word. Be sure to utilize the magnification tool and always feel free to ask questions.

    This dish is in great condition for its age.  There are no chips or cracks, no crazing that I can see.  The main decal is nice and bright with few utensil marks.  The gold-toned trim around the edge of the dish has almost totally worn away.  The makers mark on the back is very faded and hard to read but I believe it may be Weildon Potteries.  I know the state is Ohio.   Be sure and check the photos carefully as they are an integral part of the description and do a better job of actually showing condition issues than what I can explain through the use of the written word.  Be sure to utilize the magnification tool and always feel free to ask questions.
    Note:
    I have just bought out a collection of both antique ironstone and plastic children's dishes which I will be listing here on eBay in the next few weeks.  Be sure and take advantage of combined shipping discounts when you purchase more than one.

    Disclaimer:
    Photographs with a ruler or the metal tape measures are there to show scale only and usually will not show exact
    measurements
    due to
    the fact that the measurements on a wooden ruler start 1/16" into the wood, and
    the ruler,
    and also the item being different
    lengths
    away
    from the camera lens than the ruler or tape measure,
    even if it is only a fraction of an inch will also create a perspective issue.  Please always go by my stated measurements rather
    than guessing at the exact sized based on the photos.
    Note:
    Because of the way computers and cell phones are set to interpret colors that show on their monitors, and because of people's perceptions of color descriptions,  the colors you see on your screen may not be exactly the colors you will get but might appear a bit darker or lighter, or a shade or two different.  I always do
    my best to show colors as close to reality as I can get them, but keep that in mind when you make your orders as, although I will accept returns for any reason, I WILL NOT accept a small difference in color shades as a valid rea
    son for a 'not as described' claim so that you can save on shipping.  Of course, if I say that something is black and it turns out to be red when you get it, then
    obviously the fault is mine and the 'not as described' claim will be accepted
    If you need to have a perfect match and can send a fabric swatch or paint chip, or something else that you have that shows the exact color that you need, I
    will be happy to hold the item you are thinking of purchasing so that you can send me your swatch or whatever for me to use to check for that match.  I can photograph
    the item next to the color sample that you send and you can make your final decision as to whether you want to purchase from that.
    Shipping:
    I purchase postage online when I package the item.  The tracking number shows when that postage was purchased and does not start when I actually take the item to the post office to be shipped.  Note, I show a 4 business day handling period and although I may get your item packaged and ready to ship on the first or second day, It may take all of those four days for me to get your item to the post office to actually ship it.  Please don't be concerned if you check your tracking number and find out that the item has not yet been shipped if it is within my four-day shipping window.   If you do need your item in a hurry for a birthday or special occasion, just let me know and I will be happy to do my best for you.
