EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Cream pottery plate, adorned with a transfer depicting the famous quote "Well, Alfred, how are the cakes?" adds a touch of history to any table setting. The reverse side of the plate bears the inscription "Souvenir of the Great War," a poignant reminder of the historical significance of the period it represents. The plate was produced by Grimwades, a renowned pottery manufacturer based in Stoke-on-Trent, England. The transfer also includes a chronology of key dates related to the First World War. Commenced on August 4, 1914, the war ended with the signing of the Armistice on November 11, 1918, and the Treaty of Peace was signed on June 28, 1919. The transfer also features the signature of British satirical illustrator, Bruce Bairnsfather, whose work captured the spirit of the war through his humorous cartoons. This Cream pottery plate, with its intricate design and historical significance, adds an air of elegance and nostalgia to any dining experience. A true collector's item, it is a testament to the rich history of Cream pottery and the enduring legacy of the First World War.
