Exquisite Wedgwood Art Deco Strawberry Plates - Set of Four Bone China Beauties, 1920s
Pure Elegance Meets Jazz Age Glamour
A delight and so very chic! This stunning set of four bone china plates represents Wedgwood at their most artistically ambitious during the glamorous 1920s. These aren't just plates - they're works of art that capture the exuberant spirit of the Art Deco era with their sophisticated strawberry motif and luxurious gold detailing.
Artistry That Takes Your Breath Away
Hand-Enameled Perfection - Each rosy strawberry is lovingly hand-enameled in soft, naturalistic tones that seem to glow against the pristine bone china canvas. The attention to detail is extraordinary, with each berry individually crafted by skilled artisans.
Raised Gilt Mastery - The scrolling strawberry vines come alive with raised gilt veining on the leaves, creating a three-dimensional effect that catches light beautifully. This technique showcases Wedgwood's unparalleled expertise in ceramic decoration.
Greek Key Sophistication - The rich gold rim features an encrusted Greek key design that frames each plate with classical elegance, perfectly embodying the Art Deco movement's love of geometric patterns and ancient motifs.
Perfect for Elegant Entertaining
Ideal Size for Style - At 9 inches in diameter, these plates are perfectly proportioned for luncheon service, dessert presentation, or as stunning charger plates that elevate any table setting from ordinary to extraordinary.
Timeless Versatility - Whether you're hosting an intimate tea party, serving elegant desserts, or creating a sophisticated tablescape, these plates bring instant glamour and refinement to any occasion.
Authentic Character & Condition
Honest Vintage Beauty - These superb plates have been part of countless celebrations and are still ready to be the life of the party! Just three tiny specks of gilt wear across the entire set (visible only with zoom) add authentic character and remind us that these treasures have been loved and used as intended.
Museum-Quality Preservation - The overall condition is remarkable for pieces approaching their centennial. The bone china remains pristine, the enameling vibrant, and the gilt work largely intact - a testament to both Wedgwood's superior quality and careful stewardship over the decades.
Investment in Timeless Style
Wedgwood Legacy - As one of England's most celebrated pottery houses, Wedgwood pieces from this golden era of design are increasingly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts who appreciate both historical significance and enduring beauty.
Art Deco Appeal - The 1920s Art Deco period represents one of the most dynamic and influential design movements of the 20th century. These plates capture that era's optimism, sophistication, and joie de vivre.
