For over a century the Johnson Brothers manufactured fine dinnerware at their factories in Stoke-on-Trent, England. Crafting a broad range of dinnerware made with their proprietary "semi-porcelain" construction which combined the delicacy of fine china with the durability of ironstone. The "Yeovil" pattern was developed for the booming post World War 2 market. Each piece features a peach fluted "gadroon" edge, wide blue/green border, multi-hued floral center decoration, and gold accents on a pale ivory ground.

1 Large Oval Platter - 14" W x 11" D x 1.25" H
1 Small Oval Platter - 11.5"W x 9" D x 1.25" H

All are in very good vintage condition. While they appear to be barely used - there is some "scuffing" on the wide pale turquoise borders of both platters. Plus two scratches on the larger of the two. Plus minor gold loss. Otherwise NO chips, cracks, stains, or crazing of note. See photos for details.
