Vintage chintz - Royal Winton Grimwades breakfast
set in the Offley pattern - this pattern is, so far as I can
establish, unknown in the United Kingdom - however, Offley is
mentioned in The Pottery Gazette in February 1938 and here is
the quote - "Chintz patterns have always been a speciality
in the Winton Ware, and we are able to announce that three new
subjects, all of them hand enamelled, are in the course of preparation,
and these will be known respectively as Sandon, Meaford, and
Offley" - and here is another quote from Muirel M. Miller's
book, Collecting Royal Winton Chintz - "It is, of course,
possible that the advent of World War II prevented the issuing
of these designs, as potteries were then confined to making only
undecorated ware, however, some decorated ware was permitted
to be made for export, so it might be that these patterns were
made for export only" - extrememly rare Offley came in two
colorways these being Brown and Black and I love them both! -
