A vintage Mid-Century earthenware dinner service of comprehensive form, featuring a distinctive two-tone aesthetic with light blue exteriors and white interiors. The collection includes multiple dinner plates, side plates, and shallow bowls, alongside essential serving pieces such as lidded tureens with pedestal bases, a gravy boat on a fixed oval stand, and a cream jug. The pieces are characterised by organic, curved silhouettes typical of mid-century design, with pulled, sweeping handles on the hollowware. The white surfaces are decorated with transfer-printed floral sprays in shades of pale blue and grey, depicting delicate blooms on slender stems. The glaze is finished in a high-gloss sheen. A white adhesive auction lot label is present on one plate reading Lot 540 and another larger paper label bears hand-written inventory numbers 46795. No factory backstamps or maker’s marks are legible on the upper surfaces.
