- The set is made by "Johnson Bros / England". The company logo features an angular crown. The decoration is a flower motif with a blue stem of red berries and flowers with green leaves in the centre of some of the dishes. There is a band of silver pattern with blue highlights and fruits in angular cartouches around the outside edges of the dishes. The gravy boat is an oval shaped jug with a wide pouring lip and an attached handle on the opposite side. The jug is approximately 6.5 cm deep and is 20.5 cm long by 9 cm wide. The jug has a low foot. The decorative band runs around the outside of the jug and there is a gold line around the outside of the rim and the edge of the handle.
- Object History
- The china was acquired by Charlotte Latham (possibly) in England. The china was used in Burnaby since at least the 1920's since that's when her and her husband settled in Burnaby. The china was gifted to me (Ivaz) by Charlotte's daughter Frances, a Burnaby-born resident her entire life. Frances passed away in 1998.
