Bairnsfather Condition Goin Good Pottery Strawberry Ware
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and quirky plate, titled "When the ell is it goin to be strawberry," is a delightful example of Bairnsfather Ware from the early 20th century. The plate, which is in good condition, features a whimsical illustration of a soldier standing next to a barren tree, with the caption "When the ell is it goin to be strawberries?" written below. The soldier's expression suggests both hopefulness and impatience as he waits for the first signs of spring and the arrival of ripe, juicy strawberries. Bairnsfather Ware is named after the famous British cartoonist, Sgt. Major "Billy" Bairnsfather, who gained fame during World War I for his satirical and humorous illustrations of soldiers' life in the trenches. This plate, while not directly related to the war, captures the same spirit of wry humor and everyday life experiences that made Bairnsfather's work so popular. The plate is made of fine china and is in good condition, with no significant chips, cracks, or other damage. The intricate details of the illustration and the bold, clear text are still visible and vibrant, making it a wonderful addition to any collection of vintage pottery or military memorabilia. The plate measures approximately 10 inches in diameter and is a great conversation starter for any table setting or display case. Whether you're a collector, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the quirks and charms of the past, this "When the ell is it goin to be strawberry" plate is sure to bring a smile to your face and a touch of whimsy to your home.
