RARE Kathie Winkle Forget Me Not Cake Plates - Broadhurst Pottery
This set of five RARE side/cake plates have the most wonderfully mid-century floral design, in a lovely cheerful colour palette.
Designed we believe by Kathie Winkle at Broadhurst pottery, they features her iconic bold florals, in cyan blue, pink and grass green, accented with a thin, black striped motifs.
We feel they'd be most at home in a retro or vintage styled interior, out on display or, of course fabulous for any Kathie Winkle collector!
Key Points:
• A superb set of five side/cake plates
• Pretty hand-painted detailing over a stamp printed floral pattern
• Crisp, heavyweight stoneware construction
• By Broadhurst Pottery, Stoke-on-Trent
• Made from Ironstone and clearly marked to base
• Price is for set of five
History:
Kathie Winkle began her career at Shorter and Son in Stoke-on-Trent, where she was trained as a paintress. She later 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 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 and her carefree, mid-century patterns are highly sort after.
This set of plates, though absolutely typical of Winkle's design work, carries a Broadhurst pottery back-stamp without her signature stamp.
Year of manufacture:
c. 1950s
Pattern:
Forget-me-not
Approximate Measurements:
17cm Diameter at rim
Condition:
In very good and most usable vintage condition, free of damage, chips, cracks or nibbles. All simply display some age related crazing to a degree to their glaze, and a little rub to their edges, though this doesn't affect their aesthetic or use. Please refer to all images for clarity.

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.
