Lovely 1995 Wedgwood China Sarah Vase, 6 Inch, England Elegant vase made in 1995 by Wedgwood China in their Sarah pattern with an upscale look having pink, magenta and blue flowers set in a pale yellow band with light blue/orange/yellow diamond shaped accents and a light blue/yellow band with round orange accents near the top and bottom rims. The diamond and circular accent design elements give this piece a geometric modern look within a floral setting that is very eye-catching. White bone china base, made of porcelain (this piece is translucent), formed in an elongated oval shape that flares outwards at the top and bottom rims. Fully marked on the underside base with the Wedgewood "W" with an urn in its center mark followed by "Wedgwood, Sarah, Bone China, Made in England, 1995".

The vase stands 6 1/8 inches tall, with a top opening diameter of 3 1/8 inches, then cinching in slightly for the neck before expanding and then slimming prior to the flared out round base which has a diameter of 2 1/8 inches. We've provided 6 images showing varied side views, underside and a close-up of the manufacturer marking. Please note that the white "hot spots" are lighting reflections from the camera on the glossy surface and that this lighting "blands out" the coloring of the flowers a bit. The vase coloring is a bit richer and prettier in person than it appears in the images.

This vase is in wonderful overall shape with no major chips, cracks or crazing. If you look very, very closely you can see two very tiny pin dot flakes on opposite sides along the top rim. There are a few surface scratches with one within the broad floral band, a few pin/dark/transfer dots and a touch of wear on the underside base rim on which the piece sits. But nothing bad here to worry about, and nothing which takes away from the impressive look of this piece.

A neat piece to add to any collection of this great Wedgwood pattern and very usable for many types of larger flowers in any setting.

Wedgwood China Piccadilly Circus London Plate Christmas 1982 Lovely plate made as the third issue in Wedgwood China's series of Queen's Ware Christmas Plates featuring paintings by Alan Price. This is marked and distributed as the Christmas plate for 1982 with a central decor featuring Piccadilly Circus in London, England. The design shows the Eros statue in Piccadilly Circus (which is in London's West End) with nearby buildings which the description on the backside says are on Piccadilly and Regent Street. Under the design on the front is marked "Christmas 1982" with the nearby words "Piccadilly Circus London". The backside has a description of the plate, mentions it is part of the "Alan Price Collectors' Edition" and shows the Wedgwood of Etruria & Barlaston logo with Made in England. Surrounding the lowered central decor on the frontside are holly leaves and holly berries before a scalloped rim trimmed in red.

A small round plate, dessert plate size with a diameter of about 8 5/16 inches and sitting 3/4 inch in height. This plate is china or bone china but not porcelain (it is not translucent). We've provided 7 images including close-ups of the central design, the markings on the front and back sides and the descriptive copy on the backside. Please note that the white "hot spots" are lighting reflection from the camera on the glossy surfaces. Also, the image of the full front side of the plate was not shot "head on" since that created a lighting reflection in the center of the plate, so this image looks somewhat "shortened" or narrower than the plate is in person.

Wonderful condition, with no chips, cracks or crazing. There is nothing major wrong at all. If you look ultra closely in very bright light at an angle you may see some very slight surface wear on the topside, but only as some occassional dots or tiny spots and very hard to find. On the backside there are two unglazed spots which look made in manufacture and perhaps some other slight wear but nothing here to worry about.

A great piece to add to any Wedgwood china collection or a collection relating to London, England or the United Kingdom and it's neat locales. Would also make a nice gift for someone travelling to or coming from that country.

Wedgwood China University of Delaware Plate of Memorial Library Very nice college plate made by Wedgwood, England. This is likely from a set of plates made to show buildings at the University of Delaware, likely from the main campus in Newark, DE. The plate is white or ivory colored china or ceramic (it is not porcelain as it is not translucent) with a raised rayed line pattern surrounding the central graphic on the lowered center portion. Beyond the line pattern is a raised ridge having a two leaf "V" design prior to the round outer edge. The central building graphic is of the front columned entrance of the Memorial Library on campus, with a tree directly opposite, all done in an engraved type picture in a darker, medium red to maroon red color (it is not a bright red). The plate is fully marked on the backside with "Memorial Library, University of Delaware." under which appears two circular marks. On the left is the Wedgwood of Etruria & Barlaston, Made in England insignia. On the right is the insignia of the company which imported the plate for sale, marked "Sole Importers, Jones McDuffee & Stratton Co., Boston" with a lion holding up a ball or globe in its paw at the center of the circular mark.

The antique round plate measures just under 10 1/2 inches in diameter and sits about 3/4 inch in height. We've provided 5 images to show close-ups of the building graphic and the backside markings. Please note that the white "hot spots" are reflections from the camera lighting on the high gloss surface. We shot the plate at an angle since head-on the camera lighting reflection marred view of the central image too much. This creates a shadow which looks like a bit of darkening at the lower part of the curve under the building picture...rest assured there is no dirt or darkening here, that is a shadow. The plate weighs about 1 1/2 pounds unpacked, so this would ship via U.S.P.S. Priority Mail within the U.S. We are not certain of the age of this vintage plate, but guess that it may have been made in the 1950's or 1960's from other similar pieces we've seen.

While in very nice, very usuable and displayable condition, this piece is not mint. There are no chips or cracks, but the plate is very crazed, not quite all-over crazing but well on its way to that. On the topside there are black pin dots and some black pin dot wear and other slight dark wear on the raised surface, particularly on the outermost raised rim prior to the plate edge. This is not bad but you will see it when you go looking. It looks to us as if something else might have been stored sitting on top of this plate in a closet over the years causing a bit of surface wear (this is not anything you would likely notice hanging on a wall on display or just sitting on a table awaiting use). There are a few very light topside surface scratches or rubbed marks, but nothing bad, and you need to look closely at an angle in bright light to see these. There is a touch of light brown staining among the tree and its limbs and leaves, nothing bad and very hard to see in certain light, but we looked very closely. On the backside there is also a bit of light staining in the center as well as a more noticeable small brown circular stain. The backside has a touch of other age/expected wear, nothing unusual. Overall, this piece has aged well.

A neat older piece which will draw attention on display or hanging on a wall. Would certainly be a great addition for use in a set of these dishes relating to U Delaware. Would make a a great present for anyone who graduated from this terrific university, or currently works or attends there. Could also be a nice addition to a general collection of memorabilia related to Delaware, the First State.
