'CHRYSANTHEMUM' c1820 DESSERT SERVICE FOR 6
A sunny dessert service in the style of Coalport evoking blue skys and summer days guaranteed to brighten the dullest day. It has a bright turquoise border with a posy of chrysanthemums as the centrepiece.
In earlier periods well-to-do households would use a separate service to serve dessert. A dessert service for six comprises of three service pieces, a cake stand, two serving dishes and six plates. A plate is approximately 22.5mm in diameter.
We make the Stokesay Ware range of miniature china for doll's houses by hand here in London in the scale of 1 inch = 1 foot or one twelfth life size. It is made from bone china clay which is biscuit fired then glazed and fired again. The decoration of coloured ceramic enamels and 22ct gold is applied separately and permanently fired on in the kiln. We make all our own moulds and draw our own artwork so each part of the process is our own and unique to Stokesay Ware.
