Manufacturer: Royal Crown Derby China
Beautiful vintage small fruit bowl or fruit saucer made by Royal Crown Derby China in their Red Aves pattern.
This piece came out of an older home. The small bowl is fully marked on the underside "Derby China" above crown & insignia mark, under which appears "Royal Crown Derby English Bone China, "Red Aves" followed by what we believe is the pattern number "A. 74" (A74) and the Roman numerals XXXVII for 37. There are also some impressed letter & numbers in the base china which we believe are "E1173", and a lower case red "n" mark. Based on some research, this Royal Crown Derby mark was used from 1964 to 1975, so this piece is definitely vintage. We would guess that the 1173 would indicate this was made in November 1973, but don't know that for certain.
Round bowl with a slightly scalloped edge, measuring 5 1/4 inches in diameter and sitting 1 inch high. This vintage Derby China piece is porcelain, as it is translucent. Wonderful, largely all over transferred design on the inside of the fruit bowl in red of birds and foliage, on clean white base china, with the outer edge trimmed in gold. The outside of the bowl is all white. It weighs about 5 ounces unpacked.
We've provided 6 images to show from varied angles, with a close-up of the marking. Please note that the camera lighting causes white "hot spot" reflections on the glossy surface. Please use the zoom feature to examine closely.
Excellent condition with no chips, cracks, crazing, major wear. We don't think this vintage piece was ever used, the former owner had it sitting on display. Gold trim in terrific shape. On close examination in very bright light at an angle you can see a small stray scratch on the interior of the saucer (not bad) and perhaps it has a bit of other mild wear as one would expected for older items which have sat and been dusted over time, but nothing of issue at all and nothing indicative of use.
Great addition to any collection of Royal Crown Derby China, or ready for use with your Red Aves china set.
We are also listing a Royal Crown Derby Red Aves Cup & Saucer. If you are interested in both listings, please e-mail prior to submitting the order. The system will calculate postage as if you are shipping each listing separately and will not provide the savings you would get shipping everything in one box. We would be pleased to calculate that for you. |
