EXTREMELY RARE Trio of Kathie Winkle 'Bamboo' Dishes
This superb set of three dishes, are in the most wonderful of retro patterns and mid-century colour palettes.
Kathie Winkle’s ‘Bamboo’ design is an extremely RARE pattern, and as such, we have found no others available for sale, currently or previously, after extensive research.
They would be great on display in any vintage setting, or used to serve desserts or pasta given their wide shallow design.
Key Points:
• A set of three extremely rare Kathie Winkle dishes
• Stunning hand-painted detailing over a stamp printed bamboo pattern
• Additionally, a thick greyish tinted glaze adds extra texture and depth
• With a Boho/Tiki vibe typical of the mid-century era
• Made from Ironstone cleared marked to reverse
History:
Kathie Winkle began her career at Shorter and Son in Stoke-on-Trent, where she was trained. She then joined James Broadhurst & Sons, around 1950, but by 1958 she was producing her own unique designs.
She soon became responsible for all Broadhurst’s pattern designs, up until the mid 1970s. Often inspired by the exotic, Kathie's original designs were produced using a 'stamp and fill' technique. A black outline was printed on the unglazed ceramic and hand decorators would then paint the designs. This made each piece look and feel both handcrafted and individual - her carefree, mid-century patterns, are highly sort after.
Year of manufacture:
c. 1950s-1960s
Designer:
Kathie Winkle
Pattern:
Bamboo
Approximate Measurements:
14.5cm Diameter / 4.5cm H
Condition:
In great vintage condition overall, with very light signs of use and some small areas of age related crazing to their glaze. They all display a heavily textured glaze which is more prominent on their backs and are heavy pieces made of reassuringly weighty ironstone!

Buyers Guide:
It is very important to note, that all the pieces Roof + Roof sell are genuine pieces of age, each having a rich and varied past and are never sold as in new condition. With this in mind, minor blemishes, surface scratches, manufacturing flaws and a general sense of their age and history are naturally to be expected. We always try, to the best of our ability to honestly and clearly communicate an items condition, both in our description and photography, highlighting anything over and above what we perceive as ‘general age related wear and tear'. We kindly ask you look closely at all our photos, using the zoom facility, as these naturally form part of the item's description.
Please be aware that your monitor, tablet, or mobile device may emulate colours/tones differently 'on screen' to that of the actual physical item, all of which are photographed and shown to the best of our abilities. Any item/prop shown in our photography is used for styling purposes only. Prior to purchasing, if you would like further clarification on any item, then we are always happy to help in any way possible.
