This set of five dessert plates from Longton, dating to the 1930s, represents the decorative British porcelain of the late Art Deco period. Each plate is square with softly rounded corners and measures 15 × 15 cm. The fine, slightly translucent porcelain is finished in a warm, creamy white with a glossy glaze. The wide border is adorned with a richly detailed, floral and geometric motif—deep navy, gold, burnt orange and green combine in a striking pattern, further enhanced by hand-painted gilding that lends a luxurious shimmer. Along the inner rim runs a delicate garland of orange-gold flowers and intricate gold scrollwork. The overall effect blends the geometric precision of Art Deco with flowing botanical lines, creating a refined harmony. The set is in good vintage condition: only slight wear to the gilding and a few superficial scratches are visible, typical for its age, with no cracks or chips. The listed price refers to the complete set of five plates. The patterns and colors evoke an era when table decorations played a key role in daily rituals. In the 1930s, British porcelain makers like Burgess Bros. of Longton combined traditional craftsmanship with the modern tendencies of Art Deco. The ornamentation speaks of a world where geometry meets floral exuberance, and hand-applied gold adds a festive glow to the table. Each plate seems to whisper of afternoon teas, elegant gatherings, and moments celebrated with an eye for detail. These plates can be used for intimate teas or larger gatherings—pair them with plain white porcelain or simple glassware to highlight their
