You can not help but smile everytime you lay eyes on it!  This stunning piece is almost 8 inchesand is particularly bright, clean, and looking almost new! No Chips, No Cracks, No Repairs    Some Thought On Chintz History Chintz pottery (a tightly grouped, small floral all over patterns) started becoming available in England in the early 1900s.Chintz was manufactured on a large scale between the 1920s and early 1950s and appearing primarily on basic tea ware and dinner ware. Typical chintz ware is lithographed transferpaper applied over clear glazed ware to retain the bright and natural colors of the paper. The widest range of transfer patterns were offered by the Winton Potteries, many of these designs were reserved, however a few were sold to other pottery manufacturers. Among the most widely seen patterns are the Rose Violet/Rose du Barry pattern and Paisley.      During World War II only practical ware was manufactured and decorating of this white ware was forbidden. However some black market chintz was produced by unscrupulous dealers at this time. The pottery trade in recession after the post war boom chintz ware was no longer produced by Winton Potteries by the mid 1950s their stock of lithographed sheets were sold to other pottery manufacturers. In the mid 1990s due to the interest in chintz ware the potteries began reproducing their products. Due to inexpensive ease and speed of making transferpaper today reproduction and new patterns of chintz abound. As a chintz collector prior to 1995 for me personally there is nothing like an original the look and feel of a vintage piece is unique. Imperfections, black market, and non-english manufacturers all add up to the mystery and magic of chintz ware.    Please contact me within 24 hours of purchase so that we confirm your purchase.  Payments should be made within 3 days if you should need special consideration please let me know and I will do what I can to help you.  I live in a remote mountain location and usually ship once a week.  Please give me a couple of extra days to properly pack very brittle antique chintz items, as nothing is more heartbreaking for both of us should it not make the journey to you as lovely as it was sent.
